What a week!! Probably the best we have had so far although we are lucky to have survived it. We were at the airport in San Diego a couple of hours before we needed to be due to my paranoia (not sure where I got that from mum), not only was it the normal stress of getting through customs on time it was magnified by the fact that we were flying with a budget domestic airline that didn't do allocated seating so the first people there get the best seats (we got very...

Our flight with Virgin America from San Francisco to San Diego was great except for the extra $25 per bag that they charge. They had free wifi at the terminal and also on the plane while travelling and ports for you to plug your phones and laptops in to charge them if needed.

We lined up in the ticket line and when we finally got to the front and asked for the cheapest tickets available they told us they were $240 each so we opted against this and had dinner and a few drinks at the LA live bar acros...
