Jetset Scarlet

We rose early and were at Orlando International Airport by 5am. Returned the hire car and checked in for our flights to LA: 5 hrs to San Francisco with about a 1hr lay-over, then 1.5hr flight to LA. Arrived about midday - had to turn our watches back 3 hrs for the coast-to-coast time difference. So we gained 3 hours!

Collected baggage, waited for shuttle, took hotel shuttle and checked in to our hotel. Very hot weather - but dry heat. Heard tonight on the tv that downtown LA set a new record temp. today for this time of year: 113℉ (45℃) and the same is forecast again tomorrow..... Whilst the east coast is now experiencing heavy rainfall - weren't we lucky to dodge that?

Dave and I jumped aboard the red trolley (pictured) and went down to the plaza to eat lunch and pick up a few things... Dave ordered a beer for lunch (24oz) and then realised that his "drinkin' buddy" was nowhere to be seen.......

Don't really have any plans for tomorrow - we need to catch up on some zzzz's first.....
