3 1/2 and I have no recollection of it. Better story is when I was about 8-ish, Ken Rawlings, the founder of Otis Spunkmeyer, was on our flight and gave everyone on the plane some cookies.
Very expensive hotels some combined with condos. I don't think my 2 favorite cheap ones are still there--The holiday Inn at the North end of the strip and the HoJo near the middle. I think the little ones down where all the bars used to be are history too.
The Yankee Clipper! It's still there but being rebranded....(didn't see any HoJos lol).... TheW/The Atlantic is my fabe to stay on...such a pretty place still -and the Marina is immense(cruise ship /boat capital I think?) Just as all the cast of Below Deck ?
Off the top of my head the first time I can think of was 17, when we flew from Toledo, HO to London. But that seems awfully old -- I can't believe I didn't fly before that, but I can't think of anything. We drove everywhere.
21 and it was for work..Sacramento to LAX. I missed flight because I was so naive I didn't know how early you had to be. Had to wake up exec mgmt to let them know I was on a later flight and to arrange another pickup. So dumb. Been all over like a pro now.
23 years old. From the UK to Paris for my honeymoon. A cheap hotel at La Pigalle in Paris - we didn't realise at first that La Pigalle was the red light district, and we saw lots of 'ladies of the night' and quite a few drag queens. We had a great time!
25 Ft. Lauderdale Fla.
