Final Farewells, last BBQ

Great friendships never die.
Keith and Michelle stayed with
us on our Kiwi Orchard in New
Zealand while on their honeymoon
in the early 1990s.
All our Lax friends got together
for a farewell BBQ.

Lax had 1.25 Million passengers through it on July 4th Weekend, We had no problems
at all, Staff were friendly and helpful, Security was tight but fast with cheerful and helpful workers, a
credit to LAX.
A big farewell to all our friends in the US and beyond ,we loved our travels over the last 15 months.
We did over 6000 miles by sea, 4000 miles by car, and about 35000 miles by Plane.
Thankyou all, and don't forget we are Harbour Hosts on the Gold Coast Australia, and look forward  to seeing some of you in the future, our contact details will be on the AGLCA site in the near future.

This is our final post.

Tahoe to Los Angeles

Farewell to Tahoe, it was a
very pleasant stay, cool and clear,
especially after hot and humid
Florida. Only problem was
getting enough Oxygen at 7 to 8000
Feet of altitude.

Loopers in Tahoe and Truckee

Apart from the souvenir shops
 time in Truckee seems to have
stood still, the buildings anyway.
Had lunch here, well worth the visit.
