Devon to Heathrow

Travel to Heathrow for flight to Hamburg. Complication of this trip is flying out from T5 but back to T2! Decided best option was to park at T2. To avoid leaving at 04:00 have booked the Sofitel hotel at T5 and drop Karen and cases off there before parking. Yet again navigating the Heathrow lifts is a challenge. The hotel lift also proved interesting as the floor indicators were not working. Fortunately a friendly fellow guest (who had previously negotiated this problem) told us and the other guests in the never ending loop so we could escape. There is a large water feature and fountain in the reception which had notices about being careful not to let children play there. Of course, that always applies to other people not your family so the floor was soaked after 2 little dears had finished.Read more
