US DIARY: DAY 1

I met up with Chris and Sean at the airport and we boarded our plane bound for LA. We left sydney around 9am and got into LA on the same day at 6.20am. For a 14 hour flight it actually went pretty fast considering i couldn't sleep. We eventually touched down in LA to get a connecting flight to Dallas and then to Kansas City. All we saw of pretty much LA and Dallas was the airport as the airports are so far away from the city.



We departed Dallas around 4:45pm for Kansas city which was only suppose to be a 1.5 hour flight yet turned into a 4 hour flight due to weather delays. We were around 40 miles out of Kansas City when a storm front hit Kansas City. This storm front turned into a hurricane. We were forced to make a stop in some place in Nebraska to refuel. The plane made its way back to Kansas City to realise the front was still there, yet not as powerful. We still weren't permitted to land. So we had to circle the city for around 30mins until we were allowed to land. We landed fine and made our way to out motel for the night.



Chris went to a Gaslight Anthem show, only to get there after they finished. hahaha. While he was in the city, Sean and I decided to hit up Waffle House because we were starving. This place has 24 hour breakfast with the best waffles ive ever had. 5.99US for the lot and it was huge.





Tomorrow its onto New York.
