Australia……we’re on our way!

Yes, folks you guessed correct. We are indeed off to Australia tomorrow morning. After months and months of planning and preparation we are finally on our way. We have ignored all advice to travel light and have a ridiculous amount of luggage.

Currently, holed up in the Leonardo Hotel near Terminal 3 we are relaxing watching Mary Berry cook a pear tart. On the TV obviously, not in the kitchen.

We were collected by lovely Luke, our taxi driver, who collected us at 1pm and drove us safely down to London. We were due to stay at brother Pete’s in Reigate but I couldn’t take the stress of worrying about getting to Heathrow on the M25 on the day of travel. So, Luke and his taxi and the Leonardo Hotel were the worry-free alternative. Great decision as now we just need to get the airport Hoppa tomorrow. Hurrah.

Our flight leaves tomorrow at 11-50am and then 16.5 hours later we will land in Perth, Australia. It’s a direct flight, no stops at all. Let’s see how that goes!!

See you on the other side of the World!
