Homeward Bound

The Delta flight took off 7pm Boston time, 12 midnight UK time and lasted for 6 hours. There was no comparison to the delightful BA flight on the way out-food was revolting, wine served in paper cups-all a bit of a rush and certainly no one gliding round with water, apple or orange juice several times! A lot less leg room too. So remind me if possible never to go with Delta again.
We had a full English between 2 in the Wetherspoons in T5, as Manchester flight not til 10.35, and then a quick 35 minutes up in the air and we were back. We made a huge dash to the Station as fast as we could and missed the Blackpool train by about 30 seconds. It was still at the platform… so frustrating. Got the next one ….. it’s an airport train with nowhere to put luggage…. At every station hordes of people got on with even more luggage and the train was packed but we got home eventually and walked through the front door of Highcross Hill at 2.45 pm!
Here endeth the last Footprint of New England in the Fall. Travelling gets harder as we get older but…. we can still do it. It was good to visit the States again and visit new states we hadn’t before. It was also different to have half the group American and the chats that ensued. I was asked what I thought about Megan and Harry and whether I had ever seen Catherine in the flesh-I think my responses to both disappointed them! As always, we saw a lot and learned a lot. To those of you who read a few Footprints thanks a lot…. you didn’t have to but it’s nice to know people did! Here’s to the next time! 🤔🤣🙄😱Read more
