Six of us took a taxi to Edinburgh Airport this morning at 06:30. We arrived well before our flight time and sailed through security. We kept our shoes on, gathered our belongings and headed off to another interesting breakfast.
The trip to London via Gatwick airport was uneventful. This London airport has a north and a south terminal that is connected by train. We must have been at the farthest gate in the north terminal from the train connection in the south. My guess is that we walked close to a half mile or more to reach the train. Then we had another good stroll to get to the express train which took us to Victoria station and our tube connection. Passes were purchased, we figured out the directions the trains were going and out of the ground we popped - three blocks from our hotel. No lift, but it is only 45 steps to a great room. We are centrally located and are close to some pubs, plus a grocery store to stock our kitchenette. Started the pub crawl at the Prince Edward Public House tonight with a couple of pints, good pub food and dessert.
Tomorrow the tour begins.
