I unexpectedly made another 1,000+ mile move since my last post. I've now lived at least once in each of the Eastern, Central and Mountain time zones. Who knows, I might move to the Pacific time zone too sometime. I kind of like Portland, Oregon...
The last year, I've spent most of my spare time trying to figure out how best to batten down the hatches and ride out the ongoing economic and financial storms. No time for blogging, until tonight!
For those traveling to European destinations via Heathrow and then by Eurostar train from London - St. Pancras, it might be necessary to spend a night at Heathrow. I did on my way back home last time I did this trip. I think there might have been a hotel at the airport, but I might have found it too pricey? I ended up staying at a hotel very close to the airport, and that worked out well. Here's a map of the hotels closest to the airport:
The map also has the numbers of free public buses you can take from Heathrow to these hotels. Be aware that the bus drivers are less than friendly to Heathrow flyers who don't know which stop to get off at! There is also a bus called the "Hotel Hoppa" for those willing to pay 5 pounds or so for friendlier service. Haven't tried it myself though. I'm thick skinned, do like to use public transport when available, and maybe a bit cheap?
