Tier Point Run to Hawaii/San Juan in Nov 2014

Another TP run enjoyed in Nov 2014 – I flew out to Hawaii on a week long tier point run. From Hawaii I flew to/from San Juan and then I returned back to the UK.

Back in the air, to continue adding to my Tier Point pot. Somewhere new for me this time: Tucson in Arizona. The only time I have ever come across Tucson in the past is courtesy of Chandler in Friends.

On the way home today! It was a very early start, but I'd had a good amount of sleep in my comfy bed at the Hampton Inn & Suites.

Knowing that the clouds would lift in the afternoon, and having had disappointing views from the Hollywood sign yesterday, I wanted to climb up to the sign again. This time from a different starting point.

I woke at around 2am, which meant I had had a half-decent night's sleep. There's never any point in trying to adapt to the local timezone, since I am heading back home within a few days of arriving.

I might have to visit this place at some point!

I had a Warner Bros Studio Tour planned for 11am, but I decided I may as well head up there early. My heel was hurting, so the earlier I could finish off any heavy walking, the better.

I woke at around 2am, so I got a decent amount of sleep, but I knew there was no chance I was going to get back to sleep. I had an exciting plan for this morning: to hike up to the Hollywood sign, aiming to start my hike not long after sunrise (a little before 6am).
