The journey back to the UK.

We had three more flights to go in our flightathon (new word.) Number 11 was Lima to Panama City, 12 was Panama City to Amsterdam then finally Amsterdam to Leeds Bradford in sunny Yorkshire.

We were a little concerned as we only had a fifty-minute turn round time in Panama City so there was not much room for delays. Thankfully there were none and we got into Panama and Amsterdam on time. Once in Amsterdam we had a six-hour wait for our connection to Leeds Bradford. We sat and watched the mice again in Schipol airport and eventually got into Leeds Bradford at 2115hrs. We left Lima at 1600hrs their time the previous day and were on the move for about 21hrs. After a short drive from the airport we got home around 2230hrs. We were definitely shattered and exhausted but full of stories to send our other half’s to sleep!!!
Pic is of course sunny Middleton, home in the UK.
