Popped over to visit Dusseldorf for the first time, to allow me to start a TP run to Indonesia. We looked forward to visiting a new place.

Having turned off the light at around 1:30 a.m., I was awake at around 6:30 a.m., thinking about whether Mango had allowed her mum to get some sleep last night.

It eventually took two hours from leaving home to walking into the BA Lounge at Heathrow T3. The drive itself took the normal hour. Waiting for the Hoppa bus and the journey to Heathrow T5 took another 25 mins, then waiting for a tube to T3 and walking to T3 added another 25 mins or so.

This trip is based on one of the latest good value trips, originating somewhere in Europe and ending in Spain. For some reason, this open jaw arrangement reduced an already relatively cheap trip by a few hundred pounds.

The last in a trilogy of trips to Hawaii has concluded and it was another enjoyable one. Everything went according to plan and none of the flights (10 in all) were subject to any material delay.

After my entertaining encounter with the Hungarian Border Force, I ambled up the escalator and into the lounge for 20 mins.

After another disappointment at the automated passport kiosks at Heathrow T5, I headed up to The First Wing (TFW) to head through to the CCR ahead of my flight to Budapest this afternoon.
