Got up. I went to shower but there was some pig hogging the bathroom. He was a big bald old man who had all 4 shower stalls tied up with his clothes on the shower heads he wasn't using. He even had a sink tied up. He also kept farting and spitting and making disgusting noises so that all left him alone. I found the other shower on the other side of the hostel was much better and unused. We got dressed and checked out. We put our bags in the storage area then we et at Francos. We headed out at 11:00.

We went back to the hostel and got our bags. Then we had to walk out to Bay street with our luggage as the taxi companies were not answering their phones on the weekend day. We caught a cab and went to the Ferry building. We were told by the grump behind the counter that Amtrak was about 3 hours late or more due to a large truck getting stuck at a crossing north of San Luis Obispo and getting yanked out by a tow truck causing damage to the tracks. The train had to wait while repair crews fixed the tracks.
8:25pm - 9:00pm
We took the ambus to Emeryville station.
9:00pm - 11:59pm
We waited at the Emeryville station for our late train. We went across the walkway to the stripmall across the tracks and had some Seattles Best in the Borders before is closed at 10.

We arrived. Some bozo pulled his overstuffed bag in front of the door to the train making it impossible for the Amtrak person to open it. Then no one could get out due to the bag being in the way. I had to pull it out so people could get off. Then everyone crowed the elevator, so I had to carry our bags up the stairs. Mom and Dad picked us up at the door. We all went to YJ's for kawfee and we looked at the trip pix on the puter.
