Travel Log

An early start, up at 3:30am to drive to Heathrow. Easy drive in the end and we arrived in plenty of time, although the kids didn’t sleep like we thought they would!

Heathrow was busy, and we didn’t really plan the food options so ended up going up and down for more sausage and bacon baps from Starbucks to keep the kids fed. It was sushi for the adults though, because why not!

The flight was uneventful just long. By the time we eventually landed, got the hire car (2024 Chrysler Pacifica), and made our way to our hotel we’d been on the go for something like 24 hours, and it’s fair to say we were all near our limits!
