Tier Point Run to Hawaii/San Juan in Feb 2014: Day 1 – Brussels BRU to London Heathrow LHR

I spent about an hour in the lounge at Brussels Airport - it’s an ok lounge but there’s nothing much going on - the views aren’t that great and the food/drink isn’t that good either.

Tier Point Run to Grand Cayman in Dec 2013
