Subject: A cunning plan
Hi everyone Kay here.
The plan must have been a cunning one because it worked.
After 30 hours in the air and more than that on the ground in various countries, my dear husband was waiting at Arrivals in the Athens airport. I floated off the plane in superb condition having been pampered with the spoilt-brat business class treatment all the way. Being able to really sleep on the planes was such a treat. And did you know that upstairs on the A380 there is even a lounge to recline in whilst sipping drinks and demolishing snacks?
What’s more, we’re both now enjoying a series of lovely little hotels in Crete and Greece that Dennis had spent hours researching and booking months ago. We were contacted 36 hours ago by the one we’re in at present, saying that they were having to send us somewhere else for our first night as the previous guest had had a ghastly 9-hour series of boat trips, had been frightfully seasick and was in hospital being rehydrated and not be able to check out. Having experienced several days of extreme winds and storms in Santorini we could imagine what she had been through and we weren’t exactly looking forward to our ferry trip. As it turned out ours was a much bigger boat and we had the seats in the very front allotted to us so it was a good 2-hour trip and I didn’t drop a stitch.
