Just as each day ends, so does our gallivanting
A night in London
We couldn't leave "the other side of the world" without a farewell to Emma and Stuart in London.
We arrived at our Hilton at Heathrow after a bit of a rigmarole from Seville:
- early flight from Seville to Paris (Orly) with Vueling;
- wait in Orly for BA flight to London Heathrow terminal 5;
- train from terminal 5 to terminal 4 ( no cost but terminal 4 is not on same line as other terminals);
- Six minutes walk from terminal 4 to Hilton ( covered walkway from upper floor of terminal 4). Six minutes is not long but it seemed like being "suspended from reality" as it was a walkway high above ground level, fully enclosed from the elements, no way to look out, devoid of anything except the cladding of the enclosure and had only one entry and one exit.
So after a dinner with the Londoners, overnight at the Hotel, we then ambled onto our Melbourne bound plane.
It was hard to believe that we had been to so many places and experienced so many things.
We had such a fun time with "the kids" in Paris (i.e. Emma and Michael and the "other ones" - the wonderful Stuart, Ruth and Carla who were with us at various times. No photo of the lovely Carla but Google created the following animation of strange behaviour in the Paris apartment.
- for Jonathan - a drink coaster " I drink coffee because I need it and wine because I deserve it";
- for me - a drink coaster " All I need is coffee and free wifi"; and
- for both of us with a beautiful farewell message inside the card "life is a cabaret"
So true!
A special thanks to family and friends who have shared our travels with us through the blog and with emails while we were on our travels. We loved having you "with us".
Over and out dear family and friends.
