Wednesday 5th May 2010 if you cast your minds back was a very good day for Super Clique (apologies to Flanders and Swann, Lucy and Belinda) The LPC had been put behind us, no emails had been received from any law firms and that silly Icelandic volcano had decided not to drift southwards and annoy Heathrow.
An early start for all, meaning a fond farewell to a certain person on the District Line platform at Earls Court and a very excited greeting on the Picadilly line platform of the same. There was no official handover of Milla, but Claire has been told to look after me!
Continental Airlines, we have decided are NOT a Good Thing. An inbound flight delay meant that we were an hour late taking off, leaving us 45 mins to clear US Immigration, grab a Starbucks and nip onto the Quito flight. Some time was made up but Milla still had to bat her eyelashes at the flight attendants to get us off the plane quickly! This tactic seems to work on immigration officers too as they let her through, even though technically she had never left the country.... ( Note to self : please make sure that you hand in that little green card next time)
A second hurdle was encountered when we were told that Quito airport was shut. This would have caused problems as it was already midnight and we were supposed to be leaving for the Galap at 7am. All fine though.
We are currently sunning ourselves in San Cristobal in the Galapagos, but for more info on that, you´ll have to await Claire´s magnum opus.
Farewell and adieu. xxx
