The Trip Back

It's Friday about 7 pm and we are back in California.

Virgin delivered us over fed and an hour early!  Take that United.

Seats were still narrow, but no one was beside me and I had the infinite leg room seat.  I listened to two audio book on the way back, which I find I like a lot.  Blue tooth ear buds lasted the full 11 hours.

I didn't sleep a lot, but the time seemed to go pretty well.


I drank a lot of pints over the vacation.  I was looking forward to it as I was expecting bitters and porters and such.  Sadly, all of the beet was lite and weak in re alcohol.  Guinness was the darkest beer.  It was kind of disappointing.  But the company to share with was good.

Mike and Robin were some of David's golf pals and we had a couple of occasions to enjoy a pint or two and a bowl of "chips."

Cindy picked us up in middle of rush hour traffic.  A drive she made for years as she used to work in Foster City.  It's a long, stop and go run with crazy drivers to every side.  She had a new dash camera and it looked like a nice investment as we dodged and dashed and breaked and zoomed.

I think that's the end of this blog.  There will be pictures up on flickr as mentioned before.  The address is: flickr.com/photos/rich_hume

There are no England pics there now, but give me a couple of days.

Until the next trip!  I hope this blog has been entertaining.  I've enjoyed jotting down some details of the grand adventure.

Once again, thanks to Sue and David and Cindy and Mike and Robin and Virgin and the friendly folks in England, who made it such and enjoyable trip.
