| At the airport - cheers! |
After a light lunch of carrot soup, we set off. It was sunny and 25 degrees C. Our 17.10 Swiss flight to Birmingham took off on time. I had a cheese sandwich, a white wine and a yummy Swiss chocolate on board. I planned to buy a map of southwest England for the southern part of our drive - sadly I never got the chance.We collected our hire car at Birmingham, a dark red Vauxhall Mokka. Our plan was to drive to the Derby/Nottingham Novotel, which we found easily. There was a group of Chinese students staying here too. We had a meal in the bar and watched BBC1 on TV. So far, so good!
