Hawaii again? Needed to keep my TPs ticking along so that I hit Gold for Life in the next 12 months or so (GfL).

A mighty view in Yellowstone National Park

Slept well considering the jet lag. Planning to head to the Joshua Tree National Park this morning. Another fine breakfast at the HGI - always gets us off to a good start.

Mustang is the must-have car for a road trip

Arrived into LAX at a touch before midnight - some right funny buggers on the flight. People who clearly don’t rate United for food. One guy brought a pizza on board, one had a pot of pineapple chunks.

Gill dropped us off at Manchester Airport about an hour ago, and we are now settled in the lounge at Terminal 1 waiting for our flight. It’s nice and quiet here. Will add more to this post during the day.

Sadly on 1 July we arrive in Seattle and we drop the car off. We will stay for 1 night here. I wasn’t that impressed with Seattle last time, but I’ll give it a whirl again. We may even try to get into Pike Place Starbucks.
