Tomorrow...

Now this is getting serious. Anna has arrived from up north; Jack, Reuben and Asher have returned from grandparents in Oxford [and are TOTALLY hyper]; suitcases cover the floor of our lounge and I have just checked us all in for the flight tomorrow on-line.

I think, maybe possibly we are going VERY soon.

There must be something I have forgotten ... ah, books!!

For those who don't know here's the plan:
  • Gather at our house around 9:30am tomorrow
  • Leave Northampton at around 10:30am
  • Arrive at Birmingham Airport in time for flight EK40 at 14:15
  • Arrive Dubai airport 00:15 [local time]
  • Depart Dubai at 08:25 for Entebbe on flight EK723 [yes, calculate that stop at Dubai!!]
  • Stop briefly at Addis Ababa
  • Arrive Entebbe at 14:45
  • Embark on a journey of 3 hours on unknown road quality!
It could be that we are a little tired when we get there...

The compensation is the movies on the flight!! Take a look here: In-Flight Entertainment
