We were headed for a landing thirty minutes ahead of schedule, but then
along with several other planes, we were stuck in a holding pattern.
The little airplane on my video display kept spinning around, and
around, and around, going no where at 500 mph.
After touching down at Heathrow, we got into a parking queque, then took
a driving tour of the airfield. Right now where lounging in the
arrivals lounge, with Dick in another queque to use the showers. (In
2006, United had a sparsely used lounge of its own; this time it shares
the facility with several other airlines and the place is busy with
First Class and Business travelers whose flights landed in the early
morning.
Partly sunny skies greeted us, but rain in is the forecast for later today.
