That special place is of course Starbucks in the Tom Bradley International Terminal (TBIT).  When I got there the queue was enormous and the staff seemed to be working really slowly.  I thought I would end up using all of the available 2 hours (before my next flight) queueing for a coffee! Luckily things seemed […]

I ordered an Uber at 5:30pm – I always get to the point of thinking I may as well get on my way.  Why wait any longer?  Glad I did.  The Uber was fine and got me to the airport at around 6pm.  I headed to AA check in since I couldn’t check in online […]

I slept ok for about 4 hours, but by the time New York hit midnight I was wide awake.  I decided not to fight it – I struggle sleeping in at the best of times, so when I have critical timed stuff to do, there’s no chance. It’s the third day and I haven’t gone […]
