Our adventures in the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus continue....
 
Well we made it. Yesterday evening we heard that we had been booked on the 5 a.m. flight today, so it was a case of, what shall I take with me and do I really need to get up at 1.30 in the morning. I managed to use the internet to organise a hire car pick up at Stanstead, from the company we use when we come over here, so we were all set.We actually landed at 8.30 a.m. English time and it then took a further two hours to
get out of the airport. Passport control was packed solid with only about 4 desks open at that time in the morning and then it still took another 45 minutes, once we had got passed that hurdle, just to get our luggage. The drive down to New Romney was quite good, despite the rain, so we were with Jill and Les by midday, or soon after. We both have to admit that by 9.30 p.m., UK time, we where ready for our bed. It's only when you realise that with a 2 hour time difference, it is really 22 hours since you got out of bed and not really much sleep on the plane, that you feel what is politely known as knackered. It's great to see our friends Les and Jill again and no doubt we will here all about the local scandals over the next couple of days, but right now we need our beauty sleep. No comments, such as, "what a waste of time", please
