June 30th 2021 - The adventure begins:

Leaving from Dulles late at night, plans for nice meal & wine before the flight scuppered - no restaurants open!!  Thank goodness we like airplane food.

July 1st 2021 - Safe arrival at Heathrow:

A nice smooth uneventful flight. Rubbish breakfast on the plane, but bacon butty at the airport saves the day.

Moved into temporary accommodation in Hatton Garden.   Not a great Airbnb inside (photos online looked great though 😞).

However location was perfect and it had three bedrooms since the boys would be joining us.  It is just a few doors down from the infamous 88-90 Hatton Garden - home to the Hatton Garden Safe Deposit Ltd company.  This was the site of the the Hatton Garden safe deposit burglary which occurred in April 2015, carried out by four pensioners!  Needless to say a film of this was produced - "The Hatton Garden Job", also "King of Thieves" - check them out.
