The Winchester Mystery House is one of the top tourist attractions in San Jose, so I had to go check it out. This is my honest opinion of the place.

I had decided to reserve a hire car for this trip - I managed to get a half-decent deal, it should avoid costly taxi costs to get around town and give me more scope for seeing the surrounding area.

Looking forward to my final outward flight of this trip and reaching San Jose. Got a few days to recover and do some touristy things before the trip back.

It still feels a bit odd walking into a joint BA/AA check-in area at JFK T8. But everyone is warm and welcoming, so it's a good place to be.

I was greeted at TFW with a huge queue to get into security. BA were only allowing paper boarding cards, so there was obviously an IT problem somewhere. Apparently it was an airport security system issue rather than a BA IT issue.

Having not spent much time in San Jose, I was looking forward to a few days looking around. An opportunity to see somewhere new!

It's the start of my next British Airways Executive Club membership year and that means I need to start earning Tier Points again!
