Pulled the Jack Bauer of travelling today... Up at 4 to get the bus up to Heathrow, and our plane finally took off around 10am. Saw Bert from the Used at the airport who seemed in good spirits despite it being so early!

Half way through our flight the captain came on and said we had to turn around because of a medical emergency... So we landed at some US air base in the Azores Islands and waited there for a couple of hours. Had to refuel after the great fuel dump that was done over the Atlantic before we could land!

Finally took off and then it was another 6 hours to Miami, yay! Watched Sicko, the Simpsons Movie, and Transformers to pass the time... Once we landed it was the lovely wait of an hour to get through immigration. When we finally picked up the rent a car it was only another 2 and a half hours to Fort Myers. On first look at the hotel Emma was quite curious if the carpet was to hide sick?? Or maybe make people sick!!
