Most of the joints were half full at best on the inside, but like this outside I would assume Londoners are similar to those in the Midwest of the US - as in, there aren't many days during the year where you can really enjoy being outside due to the weather - so when there is a nice, sunny day, the whole city ends up outside! If you visit Chicago or Milwaukee on a sunny, summer day with a nice breeze, the streets are full of people! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare TxTeach79 Posted June 11, 2023 Author #3188 Share Posted June 11, 2023 And now we wait. One hour til we get our gate (#HeathrowThings) then boarding a half hour after that. So far so smooth. Way better than the massive BA lines anyway 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for another great review! Really felt like I was there with you. Did you have a favorite wine from this trip? thank you! Believe me, I’m sad too. Time to get home and rest up til Dream next month (a completely different trip) yes! The Albariño white (“green wine” as they call it) from Spain was our fave! All of it was good - in Europe, just order the house wine and roll with it, it’s all fantastic. We picked up our first bottle of Albariño on our excursion in Bilbao at a tasting, and found another couple after that! 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare TxTeach79 Posted June 11, 2023 Author #3200 Share Posted June 11, 2023 This plane is old, the seats are insanely tiny, and the window seat doesn’t even let me lean on the wall because there’s a big gap there. So glad we paid extra for these…. Ten hours. Breathe. Let’s just get there. #airtravelsucks 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
