15th.to 23rd.of April..After arriving in London on Air India AI-111 at 1900hrs. we caught the tube to Euston train station.Unfortunately the next train up to St.Annes on Sea in Lancashire was not till 0540hrs. the next morning,so we passed away the hours with the odd coffee and short catnaps at "Starbucks" until our departure...Needless to say by the time we reached mum's place we were ready for a few hours sleep to recharge...
We are in the UK till the 24th.before heading back to India for another four weeks...Shall try and relax and enjoy the english spring with a few walks on the beach..The temperature is hovering around a barmy 18 & 20degs. and it's a nice change not to be wrapped up in coats & jackets compared to before our departure to India in early February..I'm sure Scotland is perfect at present and we would have had an amazing three weeks driving through the scottish countryside.."Sorry, Pete & Helen"..but Songhi and I promise to return very soon and put you at the top of the itinary for a visit..Thankfully we received a full refund on the three week car hire and 90% back on the scottish YHA hostel bookings we had made previously....
We are also taking advantage of these few days in the UK to catch up on emails and this travel diary which has gradually built up in the calendar for me to copy and paste..A small amount of laundry washing and repacking our backpacks and we will be set & ready for the next leg of our year long journey.."Stay tuned..!!!!!"
"Good Friday"...The warmest day so far, probably around the mid 20degs. we think,so weatherwise it is looking like a good long Easter weekend...Songhi and I decided on our last walk along the seafront at St. Annes for this trip including a bit of last minute shopping for our journey... Considering it was only a couple of months ago when we strolled along here in dull, grey and near freezing temperatures, it was a huge contrast to see the beach overcrowded with families enjoying the warm English sunshine on this public holiday...Typically,not keeping track of time we were surprised to hear it was 1600hrs. before we got home, having left at just after 1200hrs...
