32nd Day - Vancouver- Los Angeles - Brisbane

Nearly Home - After 10 separate flights and 2 cruises over the last 5 weeks, we are now sitting in the boarding lounge at LA Airport awaiting our final boarding for Brisbane. The boarding at Vancouver was a breeze and the cleanest airport we have struck. When we arrived here at LA, we then got on a bus which shuttled us to Terminal 4 where we walked for about 15 minutes to try and find our next boarding point. We eventually found it after asking a couple of times and had to go into the Arrivals Terminal and take a lift to the 3rd floor, but no signage outside as a guide. Then we had to line up to go thru security again- emptying out every pocket,taking off jackets,shoes and belt being x- rayed etc. Oh, the joys of flying and finding ones way through all these terminals! After all that we then had to find our boarding gate by walking another long distance. We eventually got here with about 90 minutes to spare, so it was just as well we had plenty of time. All is going well now and our aircraft ( Qantas ) is apparently on time. This now concludes our final Blog for this trip. Hope the Blog has kept you up to date with our itinerary.
