After dinner I watched a short TV drama-King Charles III.Didn't reallytreat any of the Royal Family well and I would say not on their like list.Then listened to Benny Goodman and drifted off to sleep for 5 hours waking as the Captain announced the start of the descent into LAX.At the start of the sector the FA had asked if I wanted to be woken and I said no.Very soon after waking she brought me a cappucino.
You could have had a choice of snacks after dinner or another meal before landing.I don't know why anyone would want any more to eat.But here are the snack and pre landing meal menus.

Pre landing-

After landing we had to wait a while as the gate was not free.We were first off but when we got to the Immigration Hall there were massive queues.A couple of families pushed in front of us but Karma prevailed when an agent opened the barrier and let us and a few others in to the US resident lanes.This was after about 30 minutes wait.It appeared that there had been a plane from South America,one from the Middle Eat,a Chinese plane and a Fiji airways flight that had arrived just before us.No problem this time with the machine.
Then on to Customs.No racial profiling in the USA but anyone approaching a Customs agent with a Chinese passport was immediately sent to secondary screening.Finally we were out of the terminal after 70 minutes.But then a wait for an Avis bus-they seemed rare.Then arriving at the Preferred stop had to see an agent-no problems it was just they had run out of standard cars and had to wait until one was cleaned before assigning them.One was ready for me.But it was about 2 hours before we drove out of the Avis yard and headed north.
