Another Tier Point run! This one took me to Helsinki overnight, and I really mean overnight literally in the airport – I hadn’t done that before.

Another entertaining TP Run is on the cards: this time to Los Angeles. LA is not a normal destination for me, since it is usually just a connection point on the way to another US city.

It was an age before the jet bridge was finally connected to the aircraft, and the door was opened.

We dropped the car at the Rental Car Center. There were no formalities - everything would be confirmed by email. I never feel assured by that arrangement!

At 3am in the morning, I followed up on Vick's request for a Three virtual eSim to use in her new iPhone 15. Miraculously, the eSim email arrived at 3am (8am UK time) on the dot, as was suggested on forums on the net.

As normal, the day started with a visit to Starbucks. It was my turn since Vick was coming down with a cold. The nearest Starbucks was about half a mile away, so it took about 10 mins to get there.

We were now on our way home. Today we were heading to Chattanooga, then we would be back to Atlanta and then it was a BA flight home.

This is a review of The Honey Hole treehouse, available to rent at Sanctuary Treehouse Resort in Sevierville, Tennessee. We stayed for 3 nights over Easter 2024, and overall, we had a really enjoyable time.
