Saturday, April 1/2017

April 1. A national holiday in Cyprus, but the airport bus running on regular schedule. J's suitcase is two kilos over but we have them weigh mine first and it's two kilos under, so they don't bother to hold up the queue in order to have J remove two kilos from his case and put it in mine. 

Flight full except for the seat next to J (he and I have aisle seats opposite). Best thing about Norwegian Air is the free wifi. Still feels very cool to be able to email from a plane. We're on time and the queue at immigration both short and quick. Train to King's Cross and tube to Bayswater. Nice to be welcomed. Timothy seems genuinely pleased to see us - and we have our usual room 😊.
