New Years Day in Barca I slike NYD anywhere else – everything’s shut…except KFC, where we ‘dined’ for lunch. Our evening meal was at Mum and Ken’s hotel and was pretty good (again).

After a non-specific technical fault and huge delay we eventually took off at just after 1.15 local time, some 3 hrs 10 mins late. We were given no explanation and the plane we boarded looked suspiciously like a reserve plane (oil marks all down it, non-eliptoid engines, my skewed logic dictating it must be…) but so far we are doing OK. Somehow we fluked an upgrade so our 36th and final flight of our trip was in Business Class. We are about an hour from home at the moment. Jen’s parents are coming to pick us up and we might even venture out to buy a car this afternoon. So our trip has ended. It’s weird to think that a year ago today we wer on our way back from our skiing trip to Canada and about to embark on a year that would not only see us visiting places we’d only dreamed about previously but a year that would also change us deeply. Never again will we prejudge nationalities (except the Spanish), we will treat the environment more kindly (but still won’t throw our loo roll in a bin…it HAS to go down a toilet), and most of all we will live each day as if it’s our last (and not get chained to our new jobs….honest!!)

THE END
