Well, we have made it to the west coast!!! Lovely warm weather here today around 27 deg felt so good getting out of the terminal to see the sunshine.
Good trip over on Air New Zealand. First time in Premium Economy in their "Space Seats", heaps of room with the configuration of 2, 2, 2. Great food as well, we have always been happy with Air New Zealand. And also the difference in what to do while onboard, we must have had at least 100 movies, tv series complete seasons, audiobooks, music, games and the list goes on. Very nice cabin staff as well.
We had a pretty swift journey through customs and arrived at our hotel - Embassy Suites North LAX, which comes under the umbrella of the Hilton group. David was feeling a little under the weather by then so he retreated to have a bit of a nap soon after we arrived. I investigated the Business Centre where there are 3 computers to use free of charge, plus printing, fantastic!!
Checked with the front desk as to how long it would take to get to the local Westfield centre so we can get mobile while here, and once David woke we were off. Very friendly and helpful T-Mobile store where we are now back online with new sim cards for both phones and a card for my ipad as well - happy days!!
We arrived back just in time for happy hour!! Free wine, soft drinks and spirits, plus nibbles!!
We decided to have dinner in the restaurant at the hotel - Cafe Aero which was really nice and the hotel had given us a 15% off voucher to use, so I had a lovely piece of Salmon and what did David have??? Can you guess??? A fillet mignon of course.
We are just heading upstairs now for a bit of tv then it will be bed for us for a good sleep becuase we are off to Washington tomorrow morning!! Watch this space.
