January 24th


Bing,bing,bing!

This is the beginning of the trip back home. While I love being back in England, I always dread the traveling to and from. This trip we went out of Chicago. Mum, Dad and I flew there from Indianapolis to meet Piers who had driven in from Michigan the night before.

The reason Piers drove in the night before was that his passport was expired and he needed to make an emergency visit to the UK Consulate in the morning. Getting emergency travel documents is not really an easy thing and it gave Mum large amounts of consternation. Piers - not so much.

After a delayed flight and a rush through the "human pinball machine" we all finally met at the gate and prepared for the 8 hour plane ride. Happily it was only about a third full so I was able to stretch out and relax a little.
