We had a nice breakfast then took the shuttle to the airport.<span> Our driver was a small, Hispanic lady who doubled as the cook.<span> Once at the airport, we located our Southwest gate and figured out our post position for boarding, We had easy boarding and good seats near the front of the plane.<span> Guess the extra $10.00 we paid Southwest for advance boarding worked in our favor as it was a full flight. There are no assigned seats. It is first come, first served.



After 4.5 hours, we arrived in Los Angles.<span> We spent the next two hours at the airport because the shuttle couldn’t find us. It seems there were two red signs to stand under.<span> We chose one red sign and driver chose the other red sign.



<span><span>We are spending the night at the Holiday Inn Express in Hawthorne, a bit south of LA airport. It is quite adequate and is actually cheaper then the The Country Inn and Suites, our hotel in Nashville.



<span><span>Finished the day with a meal at Rudy's International Cuisine, Hawthorne, CA.
