Paddington

Another early start - perfect for avoiding crowds - this time, at Covent Garden. We had time for breakfast at Dishoom before the market opened.

Back to the hotel to get checked-out before a short tube trip to Paddington Station, a proper look round the shop there - and obligatory photo with the bear - then back on the train to Heathrow.

The airport experience wasn’t as relaxed as Edinburgh. Queueing to go through security had an edge that wasn’t there on Saturday morning! The rules seem different, from Edinburgh’s “keep everything in your bag including liquids”, to Heathrow’s full-on “everything where I can see it”.

Tired tonight, and straight back to normal tomorrow.
