Day 20 July 31st Copenhagen to London.
We had to rise at 5am in order to be at the gangplank at 6:30. Our big bags were packed and placed in the corridor by 7pm the night before where they would be collected and taken to the airport ahead of us. We breakfasted at 5:50am and arrived at the gangplank on time. The bus took 25minutes to reach the airport. I really do not know why we had to be taken so early. We had to wait until 11:30 before boarding the plane. The plane looked small but managed to seat 100. We had to buy our refreshments. I was worried because I had cashed all my Kroner for English pounds at the airport. To my relief they only accepted credit cards.
We arrived at Heathrow early and after walking for what seemed like 5 miles we cleared customs and arrived at the underground station. I topped up our Oyster cards and boarded the train. An oyster card is a train and bus pass which lasts forever providing you keep topping it up with money. When entering the train platform you touch a smiley face pad with card and the gate opens. You must go through the same process at your destination point at which point the machine calculates your fare and deducts if from your card value quicker than you can blink you eye. Twenty five minutes later we were at the Ealing Guest House. I was very weary and had a thumping headache so I lay down for a while.
At 6pm we went in search of our evening meal; we could not find a restaurant nearby but what we did fine was a small supermarket with lots of prepared meals just waiting to be put in the microwave oven and heated. We shared a nice shepherd’s pie followed by chocolate mousse and fresh fruit.
After I swallowed a couple of disprins and went straight to sleep. I awoke the next morning refreshed and with no headache.
