Day -1 - why didn’t we take the day off work?!!
Hi all - I thought I’d have a go at writing a trip report as a bit of a diary to be able to look back on our trip, I’m hoping to write as I go as my memory is terrible!!
Who are we - there’s me the Disney obsessed mum of the family and my lovely husband Tom who I think I’ve just about brainwashed over the nine years we’ve been together! Plus our daughters Mimi (12) and Sophie (6). (Mimi’s dad lives in another country to us so my dh is her “every day dad”).
It’s been 3 long years since we’ve made it to the USA (we’re English) and I can’t wait!!
This is my girls last trip - they’ve grown a bit since then!!
Day -1 we both had to work so my very helpful parents took the girls out for the day. I managed to log off about 4 and after some last minute hectic packing (why didn’t I take the day off?!!) we made it out the door bang on schedule at 6.
It takes us about 3 hours to get down to London to the airport - nice easy trip this time and before we knew it we were checked in at the Hilton Garden Inn Heathrow.
The hotel seems nice enough - beds comfy - but I’m a terrible sleeper the first night anywhere so typing this at 6am waiting to set off on our long travel day to my happy place
