Security was OK except for the usual other people not being ready!
The LX lounge at ORD is very small (and thus very crowded) though it does have views over the runway. It is direclt opposite the security exit so I had to fight through the crowd to get to the door.
Again this was a very good flight until the breakfast service on my side which just went totally to pot with people getting the wrong trays and selection despite the cards completed before dinner.
My camera batteries died before I could take pics of the main and dessert courses.

Beary inspecting the menu. A pilot is in charge of everything on the plane !
The taxi way ar ORD goes over the road / El tracks (which run in the median)
The starter (unfortunatly the bread under the salmon was half bone dry and half soaking wet)
A dagger through Slinkys heart? The swiss do seam to like their cherry tomatoes ! The champagne soon made me forget about it though !
Huzzah for International Jet-setting !
