Well... we left LAX an eon ago and have arrived at our London hotel...stiff.. tired and ready for a good nights sleep.
Of course the flight didn’t go quite as planned.. I mean .. what to you expect.. it’s us!
The seats we reserved were given to someone else...and there was nothing we could do ..even with a payment receipt. Our new seats meant we weren’t even sitting together... but the check in clerk said to have a word with the attendant at the gate one hour before the flight and sent us to gate 155. So two hours later... we went to the said attendant... and it was a good thing we did... as we were waiting to board a flight to Lima, Peru. There had been a mix up on the board...the gate number had changed and the flight was delayed. I mean.... who else has trouble understanding announcements over a tannoy!
But they did their best and got us seats together in the middle of a row of four...which was ok except the nice gentleman next to me liked to spread himself out a bit so it was a bit of a squash! But the upside was MrDs motion sickness patches worked a treat..and he slept most of the way.. and didn’t even feel the severe turbulence.
From there everything has gone smoothly. We caught the free Heathrow Express to terminal five.. where we jumped into an unmanned pod which took us straight to our hotel... very space age!!
The room is comfy... and being too tired to go out to eat.. we grabbed a Macdonalds from across the street.. made a proper cup of tea... and shortly we will be asleep...
