Day18 - Thursday 26/09/2013 Leaving Berlin

An early start today - breakfast, pack suitcases, visit to ATM (at last we can use our euro), taxi to Tegel airport, and fly to London. It seems our tickets are still valid, unlike previous advice. It's raining again today.

Somehow 'we' have misplaced our tickets, but I have the email on the iPad, and this will suffice - thank heavens! Also, this is the first time I have passed through the metal detectors without a query or search of any kind. This makes a nice change!!! The whole process is stressful enough without being treated like a terrorist.

At Heathrow, we get our passports stamped again, hooray, collect our luggage, catch the courtesy bus around to the car rental terminal, and after some messing around, loaded up our car, and drove up the M1 to York.

After settling in to our room, we enjoy a counter meal at the adjoining pub, and have an early night, in anticipation of a big day in York tomorrow.

No photo opportunities today - too busy getting organised and navigating.
