Autumn Travel : Days 1 – 2

The first two days of my holiday merged into each other as I flew from Vancouver to Heathrow, hopped on the Piccadilly Line Tube train to King’s Cross / St Pancras, and then caught the express service of East Midlands Railway to Leicester, the first stop, with the final destination of Sheffield. This train journey to Leicester took one hour.

I checked in to my hotel and then headed to The Globe pub for some real ale and a vegetarian pie with new potatoes. An excellent start to the trip. As usual with jet lag, I slept soundly from 9pm to 1am and from 3:30am to 8am. I was wide awake between 1am and 3:30am.
