Over Easter 2014 we took a trip to Helsinki – our first visit to Finland. It was partly to allow us to try out the CCR at Heathrow T5 and partly just to get away.

I can normally rely on BA making me feel at home on the New York JFK to London Heathrow flight. Was it going to be another trip to solidify their reputation?

Flying in First Class with AA on the transcon is normally something to look forward to. The service is normally excellent and the food good. I wondered whether AA would live up to my expectation.

A little sad to be heading back to the UK, but looking forward to seeing the Vickster and the kitties. First leg Tucson to LA.

Ever since getting into iFit and following Yuri Hauswald, I've wanted to visit some of the places in Arizona he rode his bike through. One of those places was Mount Lemmon.
