Well, it's 10/09/2006 and we're in the Express by Holiday Inn at Glasgow Airport. Clean, simple rooms which is all we need - a place to eat & kip. Only 250m from the airport terminal.
Flight leaves tomorrow morning at 0815, bound for Toronto, Canada. BAA being what it is, that means getting to the airport at 0515 to check-in and go through security. Bags are all weighed and there's only one bit of hand luggage as per the paranoid regulation according to HM Gov. One bag, two bags, who cares? Just makes it more difficult for the average Joe to take what he wants where he wants. As far as I can see there are no similar regs in other countries, so I guess I can bring back more that I have taken out.
Arrives Toronto at 1030 EST. Say 1-1/2 hours to clear immigration and customs, then into Toronto on the Airporter Express. Drops us at the Delta Chelsea Hotel, and it's only a block or so the the Days Inn Conference Downtown on Carlton Street. Just relax for a wee while and then hit the streets. Take in a wee bit of art and pop along to the Eaton Centre to pick up a Rogers Wireless SIM card for our phone.
Oh well, time on this terminal is running out. I'd go onto the laptop but whilst I can get a wireless connection I cannot get an IP address - sound familiar to anyone? So, unelss it's sorted itself out I'll blog somemore tomorrow afternoon/evening/night, depending on your geographical location and point of view.
