Traveling Home

September 23 and 24:  Our first travel day took us from London to Keflavik, Iceland.  We took a cab from the Mentone Hotel to Paddington Station.  Then we took the express train from Paddington to Heathrow, Terminal 2.  Lastly we flew from London to Iceland via IcelandAir a little over 3 hours.   I watched X-Men, Apocalypse.   

After we retrived our luggage and called the B&B, we walked to the oceanfront toward town and returned to the B&B's recommended restaurant.  It was a fast food joint serving pizzas, burgers and the like.  We each had bbq chicken salad.  We walked nearly 6 miles.

Our second day took us from Keflavik to Portland.  Our flight as scheduled for 5:15 pm but the weather was dreadful, so no walking after breakfast.  We watched the last movie I rented and installed on my IPad - Guardians of the Galaxy.  After the movie, we transferred to airport and spent the afternoon in the business class lounge.  I snagged a lounge chair and finishing most of the latest Daniel Silva novel - The Balck Widow. 

Our 8-hour flight to Portland left just a few minutes late.  We sat in seat 3D and 3F.  I watched several movies - Run All Night, Fracture and Street Kings.  I finished up with one episode of the modern Sherlock.  

We arrived at Portland near on time, ran the custom's gauntlet with little hassle and waited for our luggage.  We retrieved everything and Andrew picked us up in the Prius.  We walked through the door to greet Sophie at around 7:30 pm.  All was well.
