We got up early after a terrible night in our London hotel. We took the Underground to Victoria Station where British Airways have a check-in counter for Gatwick. After a bit of shopping at Victoria station, we made a run for the Gatwick Airport Express and enjoyed a half hour train journey across London’s south communities. They said at the check-in that they had a light load and the big 747 was about half empty so we had plenty of space, but we were over an hour late leaving Gatwick because they had a problem with the air condition system, at least, that was what the captain said…
We landed in Denver not more than 30 minutes behind schedule and passed through imigration and customs before we jumped on a Dollar-bus that took us out to the rental car. Denver International Airport is HUGE and is said to be the worlds largest airport, but certainly not in traffic though! Very few international flights make a call here and currently it’s only BA that makes non-stop flights from Europe, but Lufthansa is supposed to start a new service from Frankfurt in the spring of 2001.
The white Chrysler LHS shined outside the “Dollar-shack” and after putting our luggage into the fairly large trunk we were on our way to Colorado Springs and a couple of nights at my friend Geir’s place. We went to Applebees for dinner and after an update about what was going on we soon hit the sack, tired after a long journey…
