Day 13 (May 23rd)

There’s not much to say for the final day. I headed up to Piccadilly early to do some trinket shopping and to pick up some snacks for breakfast. We were a bit concerned about the situation we would find at Heathrow Terminal 5 in view of the British Airways strike due to begin the next day (the reason why our original flight had been canceled). Tension seemed to be running a bit high but, on the whole, things were operating efficiently and we had an uneventful return flight.

Thanks again to Gerry for providing Sasha the cat with her own vacation, and to Donna and Becky for keeping an eye on the homestead (even if Becky’s eyes were in fact on the beaches of Florida). I appreciated the updates and knowing all was well at home and with Sasha.

And thanks to our friends in England who volunteered travel advice and tour assistance. Jean, Chris, Terry — how wonderful to be able to spend some time with you. Jim, Andy — sorry I missed you, but thanks for the advice. If you’re ever near Pennsylvania — please let us know!
