Day 1: Sunday 11th |

DAY 1:
Destination:
Granny Mouse's Country House
An early morning start for most of us.
Shuttle pick-up started at 06:00. The
Constantia group had time for a cup of
coffee before the Tableview group arrived
at the airport. Soon we had all
checked in and the excitement mounted.
The Two Barnes' ladies were thrilled when,
on boarding, were told they had been
'upgraded" to business class - no packaged
sandwich for them - a plated meal made them
smile! |

"Great excitement, a week with nothing to do"
was the tone set whilst waiting for the plane -
and of course on arrival getting your luggage
and loading it on the coach is even more
exciting! Dawn and Linda
unload their cases from the trolley to make sure
they didn't get left behind.. |
|
Mega Coach chose to give us their
biggest vehicle.....perhaps in their eyes - an
upgrade - but we knew this vehicle was not
suited to the Midlands! We asked for a
32-seater which would have allowed us easy
access into all the destinations. There were a
few issues with the coach size and we had to
reschedule a few visits. First stop was at
Il Postino
for delicious pizzas and then
Granny Mouse
and their wonderful gardens were a
welcoming sight. |
