London Last week day seven

14/7/2011

As I write this entry we are packing our bags for the flight to Hong Kong. It was again very hard to say goodbye to Bex this morning when she headed off to work. The goodby’s are always the hardest and so we think not of the sorrow we feel on having to leave but on all the wonderful memories of the amazing things we have done together that will stay with us forever. In doing this it helps make the departing just that little easier. Andrew is finishing work early to accompany us to the airport. We never expected this so it’s wonderful news. We decided to meet for lunch close to Chris and Gemma’s work and this was just awesome, although Chris and Gemma had already had their lunch. The goodbye to Chris and Gemma was very very hard and I think you have to be a parent to truly understand the gut wrenching ache this brings on. So it’s now 4:30pm and we have got our bags packed and heading to the airport via the tube which is packed with people going home from work and this makes for a cramped, long 1hour ride with no seat and all our luggage. Thank god Andrew came with us..
