Holiday Preparations

A frantic day of getting ready for our trip to Barcelona.  I hoisted the USA flag this morning as it is the United States' Navy Day which marks the anniversary of the end of the States' biggest naval battle of all time - the Battle of Leyte Gulf.  We cleaned out the goldfish and attended to a number of essential chores - cleaning and tidying and packing and finally left the house at 5 p.m. for Gatwick Airport.  I took the A272 rather than battle with traffic along the coast road or the M25 and we arrived at our hotel near the North Terminal at around 7.30 p.m.  We had a meal in the hotel and finally went to bed around 10.30 p.m.
