The start of the trip to Andalucía

We've booked in 6 nights with Bill and Anne in Anadalucía because it's just after the announcements about civil service jobs so we wanted time out either way after the news.  The news was good so I'm pleased that we can spend the time relaxing rather than worrying.  I started the journey this evening by driving to the Best Western Hotel at Gatwick, arriving around 10pm.  Gordon came down on the train from work.  We had a quick beer and then went to bed ready for the 5am start tomorrow!

The sharp among you will realise I can't have taken the picture in this post as we didn't actually see the hotel in daylight!  It's a good deal though - £100 for one night's accommodation and 7 nights of parking onsite.  Given that two returns on the bus from Oxford would cost £56 I don't think it's a bad deal.  With a 7.40am flight it would have meant a 3am bus out of Oxford - hardly worth going to bed!
