It was just creeping up on evening when Pippin stumbled out form the Sacramento International airport international arrivals terminal. Blinking in the late evening sun after so long in airports. That is the last time that I fly coach across the pacific. Now where does one catch a cab in this city.
Looking around he found a cab after a few minutes, providing the driver with the address he was given by a friend in the court of fear back in London for an Edna’s Boarding House. The driver eyed him with a little apprehension before nodding that he knew the place and trying to make small talk.
Pip dozed off eventually on the drive to Edna’s, he couldn’t sleep on planes but car rides knocked him out like he was still a fussy toddler. The driver woke him up when they got there and he paid him with some of the last of his American money. Ok here goes nothing he thought as he walked up to the porch shouldering his backpack and knocking firmly, but politely on the door.
