      I'm doing this flight alone in 2 weeks but with an added flight from Manchester to Heathrow. How mad am I on a scale of 1-10? really hoping I don't regret my choices. I'm going over to LA briefly for the horse racing breeders cup at Santa Anita. Added to the potential drama, I've not flown in 10 years, and I've certainly never flown alone lol

    Have you ever considered visiting the Queen Mary down in Long Beach? She's a historic British ocean liner, among the largest and fastest ships in the world in her time, and served reliably from 1936 until 1967. This included service as a troop ship in the second world war, where she broke the world record for the most people on a single ship - 16,600 troops on a voyage from Sydney to Southampton. In recent years, her American operators have encountered hardships, even filing for bankruptcy in 2020. In 2023, she reopened fully to the public following still ongoing extensive repairs and renovations. The ship is genuinely a sight to behold, and I believe now they're running package holiday stays aboard the ship.

I usually get a tiny glass of soda on our flights LOL. Too bad the quality of the food has deteriorated though. Those chocolates look lovely too! Definitely hard to get comfortable on long flights like that :( sorry to hear that you had a hard time sleeping too! That's cute that they provide afternoon tea!
