I had my last day in Grenada yesterday, I am sad to be leaving this beautiful island and my beautiful friend Julie.
We had a lovely last couple of days, relaxing, a final meal at Miss Bernadettes, saying goodbye to Syd new, and then the very Tall, chatty and kind Gregg gave me a lift to the airport, this was all going well until we hit an accident, Gregg managed to bypass this with his knowledge of the roads, but somehow we still ended up in a rather large tailback, moving extremely slowly, but by channeling Lewis Hamilton, Gregg managed to get me to the airport, in time and thankfully in one piece!! Thank you. 👍😘
I absolutley loved Grenada, it’s a wonderful, friendly country and I met some amazing people some of whom have fascinating stories of how and why they have ended up living in Grenada. I was made to feel very welcome by all. If you ever think of visiting the Caribbean, look at going to Grenada, it’s fantastic.
my first flight from Grenada to Miami was lovely, I managed to get a whole 3 seats to myself, luxury. The flight arrived early which was great as I was a little anxious about the time between my connecting flight to LA. All was going swimmingly until we got into Miami airport security…….chaos! So many people.
Our plane docked at the farthest end of the terminal, so to get to Passport Control you have to walk about a mile, then take a bloody train and when you eventually get there you are greeted by banks of Bloody computerised terminal thingys!! a bit like the new MacDonalds, automated ordering machines…which I can’t operate! So this is not a good start, I finally figured out how it worked, was presented with my little slip of paper and then had to get into the most humugeous, snaking line 😬 by now time is ticking, I’m thinking I’m not going to make my next flight! I spoke to some woman in a uniform who was particularly unhelpfulful, she just told me to stay in the queue. Finally I did a very un British thing and stepped out of the line and went to find another person to help, they finally took me to the front of the line, Yeah!! But that was not the end of it, I then had to walk a further mile to baggage reclaim, then into another long snaking queue to go through more security, but at this point I was given a large blue card, which was expedited security, I’m thinking great, this’ll speed it all up, but sadly no, it just meant I didn’t have to remove my shoes!! 😳 finally through security, another miles walk to my gate, I arrived just in time to board. Not such a great flight, I was sat in the middle seat between 2 rather large men, one of whom really ought to think about his dental hygiene 😷 but once again the flight arrived early, and getting out of LAX was a total breeze (I’m a little worried that somehow I’ve missed a whole set of security) I jumped in a taxi, and arrived at my hotel in Santa Monica at 11.45pm.
All good so far, great nights sleep, no mossies 👍👍 Off to Whittier today to pay my respects to my wonderful Uncle, Dave Morgan. ❤️❤️
