485 Day Wait - Day 15

[Magical_Unicorn]

Alarm goes off . None of us have slept . Blake kept having dreams sitting up and talking . I kept checking my phone for the time.

We get up me and Rich shower and make a hot drink . After packing the last few bits we head up for breakfast with our cases .

8:30 we Leave them with Bell services whilst we have breaky . Well this is the first breakfast we've had lol so we al choose the same it's like an American full English . It had a scone on and like an eggy fried bread thing . Quite nice but no surprise it's massive . I can't wait to get back to some home cooked roast dinners I feel absolutely huge and bloated . Everything is now tight on me .

We head into the shop use our last few credits on sweets . We haven't done too bad think we end up with about 20 snack credits left once al converted in to snacks f meals . Kids choose snacks for plane and for friends back home including goofey sours and Hershey chocolate bars .

Tragical Express has arrived it's 9:45 so we load up and get to the airport . Dump bags and just chill by the gate pretty boring and everyone pretty quiet .

All loaded we take off half an hour late the pilot was late !

High light is seeing a rainbow lol .

No food just free soft drinks but only 1hr 45 and we are off .

luggage was checked in straight through to London so we get off and go straight to next gate . Due to the delay we only have just over an hr by the time we get there . So we just wait . We are al pretty exhausted .

Now this plane is awesome . It's a Dreamliner a 3-3-3 seating . TV in seats are great and touch screen even has games on . Even the shutters on the windows don't exist there like a up and down button and window goes darker or lighter . As you can tell I'm not used to planes and don't go away a lot 😂

I force Lewis into a quick selfie haha

We have a drink . I have Heineken all drinks included on this flight . Them lunch is about hr and half and so nice a spicy chicken and rice dish , salad with a side dressing and a bread roll . I have another Heineken 👍

I kind of gave up with photos after that think it was the tiredness but 15 minutes after we get a lemon sorbet . Then a cup of tea but you could have another drink if you preferred . We also get offered more drinks a few more times .

I watch 12 episodes of sex and the city and we get another meal which was breakfast . A croissant with jam and butter and a yoghurt . Really good again .

6 and a bit hours after we set off we land . Such a lovely flight . Me and Lewis didn't sleep at all and Blake and Rich (on a separate row cat napped .

We get to Heathrow get through security etc and luggage is there waiting ! Perfect .

So we get the car via bus to the hotel we stayed at (crown plaza - brill hotel was just under £200 for anyone thinking off doing a night there and leaving there car )

Head home . We get back at 10:30 uk time to home as you can see kids can't take anymore lol .

Well here ends the story , it really has been a trip of so many highs . I haven't caught the Disney bug but truly feel lucky to have experienced what we have done . I feel like the boys have grown together and I should have taken it all in a little bit more . It's been a whirlwind .

SO much time has gone into this holiday I'm wondering what I'm going to do now on an evening .

Maybe we will be back in a few years to come but until then there's a big wide world out there to explore .

Look forward to reading everyone else's stories , thank you for reading mine .
