The 321 Trip - Pre Travel Day (30/10)

While I am not planning to do a live trip report, I thought I would get this day done today while I'm chilling out before bed.

I woke up this morning at 10am (I work permanent late shifts, so getting up early is not in my repertoire!) and faffed about for a bit, before deciding to make a list with timings to ensure I didn't waste the day. As well as packing for this holiday, I've been packing up the room I rent in preparation to move to my own flat upon my return.



I did online check in just after 11, my seats have been booked for ages as they allow you to choose them with PE. I was dressed and out of the house at 12, I have been making sure there is nothing left in the freezer so I had nothing for dinner as all my food has been packed away. There is an Iceland up the road (10-15 minute walk) and I thought I'd grab a ready meal or something for dinner tonight, as well as something quick for lunch.

Iceland wasn't too busy, and I got back home at 12:45. I ate my quick lunch of mini sausage rolls and watermelon slices, before starting to pack some more of my room. Once that was done (there is a small amount to be thrown into a box when I get back) I moved to finishing the holiday packing, working through the list of last minute bits I'd written down.

When I was done, it was just after 3pm, so I played around on my phone for a bit before deciding to get my nails done and out of the way. For now, they are white, with Lilo & Stitch transfers - I wore these to WDW last year in November and they're so cute and so easy to apply. I was about 2/3 done when my mum called. I spoke to her and my sister for just over an hour, catching up.



(I've tidied them up a little bit since I took this - I don't have the steadiest hands!)

I finished my nails, and put my MacBook and iPad on charge. I'm taking my laptop so I can transfer my photos each night. I waited a little while for my nails to dry, put my nail polishes that I'm taking into my liquid bag and popped the oven on for my dinner to cook.

I had found 2 slices of garlic bread in the freezer so I had a cheese pizza with them. I watched Diners, Drive Ins and Dives while I ate, and he visited a couple of places in San Francisco, so I have made a note of them and may try them! I went upstairs for a long shower just after 8, did my washing up when I came down and I'm now sat writing this, with a big mug of hot chocolate and Magic radio on.

I would have liked to stay in a hotel close by tonight, but it was an unnecessary expense considering I'm only 25-30 mins from the airport. I'll go to bed soon and I am aiming to get up around 5:30 to be out of the house and on the way to Heathrow at 6:15. That's if all the Diwali fireworks stop at some point, they've been non stop since 5pm.
