I have 5 tickets on British Airways, and 4 people whom I know will be going. I canceled the B&B and found a lovely hotel with some English Charm. I bought Oyster Cards and London Passes. I bought and had delivered some GBP and Euros. I’ve arranged for our second Mad Max Tour. (You can read a bit about our original MMT here.)
I contracted with Darren of Adelphi Executive Hire for transport between the airport and hotel, several times during our trip. He’ll pick us up at Heathrow, take us to the hotel, pick us up again and take us to the airport to catch our Dublin flight, pick us up again and take us back to the hotel, and finally take us back to Heathrow so we can fly home.
Yes, I know that the underground can take us from Heathrow to within a block of our hotel, but I am afraid that Mama won’t be able to negotiate the steps of the underground with her luggage. I’m trying to make it as easy as I can on her…and on ME…so I hired a car to cart us around.
No way would I attempt to drive on the wrong side of the car and the road!!
