So I had a 14 hr layover in LA. I chose a hotel, and I must say, the photo gallery of the hotel rooms etc did not match the reality. And the promised continental breakfast consisted of nasty coffee, unidentifiable baked goods, and a bowl of apples. So I skipped it. Caught the earlier shuttle to the airport and I now sit here at my gate with a caramel latte courtesy of Starbucks. I travel with GF snacks, so it is accompanied by a biscuit (cookie), courtesy of the Byron Bay Cookie company. This biscuit travelled all the way from Australia to only be consumed on the way home :)

This morning while waiting for the shuttle, I took a brief walk down to the corner and back. Snapped a couple of pics. I saw that the hotel neighbour was a depot for Amazon Fresh. They deliver the food items such as meat, seafood, fruit & veg that folk can purchase from amazon.com. Is there anything that Amazon does not sell?

Anyways, I board my flight in 2hrs. LA to Seoul, flight time: 13 hrs and 40 mins. Then an 8 hr layover before the final leg to Brisbane, which will take 9 hrs and 45 mins.
