Our first weekend away with our neighbours Mike and Jo to Devon. A lovely time was had by all.

Unbelievably, the hotel assigned me the same room last night that I’d had on my previous stay. Considering the place has around 6,000 rooms (or something close to that), that’s one heck of a coincidence.

It was mad for pickups at the hotel, but my Grab taxi managed to wind its way through all of the other cabs. For less than £2, its just a no-brainer to avoid the walk and getting sweaty on the way.

By this point, I could definitely feel that I was properly into the swing of things. Hong Kong had become something of a base for the Asia phase of my Round The World trip, and staying in the same hotel each time simplified everything enormously.

The ride back to the airport was very comfortable. It may have cost me double what I’d hoped to pay — thanks to having to book a Grab Premium — but given that it still only came to around £5, I wasn’t going to complain too loudly.

I woke well ahead of my alarm, which was set for 4:30am. The plan was to catch the first hotel shuttle bus back to the airport at 5am.
