Tuesday morning we’ll kick Terry, our cellar dweller, out of his sack so he can have the privilege of running us to the factory outlets at Tulalip. There’s a bus that runs from there to Vancouver Airport in plenty of time to pick up our flight.
The flight is going to be interesting, it’s a charter flight run by Tomas Cook the British travel group, it’s also “direct” and even traveling first class it’s less money than the usual way we’ve traveled from SeaTac. Last time I went to Eng-er-land my flight was delayed getting into Chicago, meaning I had another 8 hours added onto my day, not good..! So we’ll give this a try.
We get in next day in the morning and pick up the rental car at Gatwick, then take a couple of relaxing days traveling English country roads down to Hastings way, Three Oaks Village and ‘The Barn’ for the first portion of our wanderings…..
“ ’The Barn’ was once a Victorian barn dating 1877 now converted into a cottage with secluded garden.
The village has a local inn and railway station with services into London, Charing Cross and Cannon Street.
The village itself is very picturesque surrounded by country lanes, footpaths, woods and fields, and on its doorstep is the historic 1066 walking routes. Shop 2 miles, pub and restaurant 25 yards.”
I can crawl 25 yards back ‘home’ easily...!
