• Avond 1 in LA

    August 1, 2024 in the United States ⋅ 🌙 24 °C

    We finally arrived at 21:00 Dutch time in LAX. Local time was around 12 pm. It took me almost 2 hours to get through border control and to get my suitcase back. After that I decided to wait for a friend so we could go together towards the dorm. Luckily her border control went a little bit quicker. In the meantime I tried to open my suitcase. Thankfully it worked 😊.

    Also at one point I did a Covid test?? The guy asked me if I wanted to join an international survey. And I was like yeah sure. Turned out that I had to do a covid test, luckily it was just the tip of the nose and I could do it myself but lol what happend??

    After I met Jenni we headed towards the shuttle bus. It took us 1,5 hour ish to get through. I was super super busy with a lot of traffic.

    Once we made it we got picked up by lisa and saga. Luckily it was only a 7 min drive. Also the temperature??? At the airport it was pretty much okay, but at the end of the shuttle trail it was 38??

    We quickly made our way towards the dorm, settled a little bit and went for a walk to get some food at in-n-out burger. They were nice, just a tad better than McDonald’s.

    We talked a lot and made our way back towards the dorm, we packed everything out and gave everything a place. The dorm is so clean and well organized, with a lot of stuff and handy supplies which is very nice. Also the WiFi is very good and the aircondition works amazing.

    After we finished unpacking we tried to wait for our other dancer Lena. Sadly her plane was delayed and she came in 9:30 something. By then we were already awake for more than 25 hours.
