Sat 19th
With check out at 11, we set an alarm for 9.30 but were woken at 9.10 by Rob’s mum calling - apparently they thought we would be awake already!
We got up and sorted our things out, we had a few extra souvenirs to fit into our bags. We left the room at 11 and put our bags in the car. We had a final lunch reservation at Sanaa so we headed down ready for the restaurant to open.
We had the bread service to start and the Rob had his normal choice while I tried the piri piri chicken sandwich. It was good but a bit too much bread…!
For dessert Rob had the trio as always and I had the chocolate mousse again
We left around 1 to head back to Tampa, again a relatively easy drive with a little bit of traffic as we got near the airport. We stopped for gas twice along the way (a total of $30) to make sure that we had a full tank before dropping the car back.
Once we handed back the car we checked in and got rid of our bags quickly, we did a little bit of shopping including a Harley Davidson collar for the dog
Through security and we bought some drinks for the wait, there was a fairly big rain storm while we were waiting but thankfully it didn’t delay the flight.
The flight was not especially exciting, we had a lady sat on the aisle next to us who seemed most unhappy when we asked to get out a couple of times to use the toilet (and we tried to make sure she was awake when we asked)….need to get my aisle seat back next time!
Breakfast was most disappointing, a really cold croissant with jam but no butter and a rock hard (cold) granola bar….not the best breakfast from BA this time.
We landed at around 7.30, as normal passport control was extremely busy so we joined the long e passport gates which made the process a little faster.
Thankfully the bags arrived pretty much just as we did so we headed out and straight on to the shuttle to South terminal.
Our car was waiting at the car park and thankfully it was unharmed by it’s stay in valet parking; we were driving out of the car park at about 8.30 which was nice.
We stopped to get breakfast at Solstice Park on the A303 from McDonalds as we were both quite tired at this point.
We got back to the house at about 11 and after quick showers we collected the dog from kennels and were all back in the house by 12
