The Captain was spot on. We arrived at Gatwick 20 minutes later than scheduled. bags were already on the carousel when we got there, unlike in Turkey and the APH bus came about 1 minute after we got to the bus stop, so all very smooth.
The downside though was that the temperature was 5 degrees and it was misty/foggy on the way home. The heated seats in Nessa helped take the chill away though. 😉
We got home about 2:15 and were very soon jumping into a freezing cold bed. What a shock to the system after 11 nights where the temperature barely got into the teens. We'd had about 4 hours kip when Catherine's alarm went off, 2 hours early. Her phone was still running on Turkish time!
As the dull dank morning light appeared, the latest adventure was finally over.
The next big adventure for me, will be that of becoming a grandfather, in around 6 weeks time. I'm looking forward to that with some trepidation. Whilst away, walking into the sea with Catherine, I was reminded of when my granddad took me into the sea for the first time. A happy memory that I hope one day to emulate with my own grandchild(ren).
Next holiday will be my 60th birthday Caribbean cruise. Can't wait, for the holiday that is, not turning 60!
That's all for now.
