Learning that posting from a laptop is much easier than from a phone for me. I will be using my phone throughout my trip because I didn’t bring a laptop. Landed at LAX and caught the shuttle to my hotel (Embassy Suites Airport Morth). I can’t say enough about how good the service, room and quality of stay are at this site. Culp’s to front desk staff for getting me in my room early. Nice to have a couple of complimentary beverages this evening (Stella Artois and Angry Orchard Apple Cider) and relax a bit. Shuffling packing tonight to make boarding ship easy tomorrow. Looking forward to complementary cooked to order breakfast in the morning. Followed by shuttle back to LAX to catch transportation to the ship. Hope tomorrow goes as smooth as today went!
