Update for gailstraveladventures

As mentioned in an earlier posting, I don’t have enough space to continue posting. Pictures take up too much space. I will figure out what to do probably after I get home. At which time I will post anything going forward.

We arrived back in Dover completing our cruise to Greenland etc on the 21st. From there we arrived by bus to Gatwick airport hours and hours before our flight was to take to Valencia, Spain. And then that was delayed.

At last we did arrive. I had difficulty getting through immigration cuz my little finger of my right hand doesn’t straighten flat out for fingerprinting …. had to use the left hand instead.

At our accommodation, OMG, it will be an experience we won’t likely forget. First off, this is an AirBnB (which I have never had an experience dealing with before), so no reception, nobody to help get in. I was sent instructions by WhatsApp. WhatsApp requires wifi. There is wifi available once you get into the suite (???). Hmmmm! We fiddled with the code at the front door to no avail but a couple of gals were exiting so we got through that hurdle. (We have since got a code from another resident). Then we take up the elevator that we could barely fit in…. To the 5th floor (cuz our room number is 504). BTW, in Europe the first floor is “0” so I guess we are actually on the 6th level. Well, we get off the elevator there are no doors that say 504, only numbers in the “teens”. Oh but, heh…. It says puerta 14 on the instructions. There are some more codes and the door 14 opens. And then there is the 504. And some more electronic key but we cannot get it to open so after multiple tries we see another option on the text…. That has numbers but I cannot open it, D can though. What a procedure….. like trying to get into Fort Knox.

I will not be sending anymore posts for the next week… til we are back home…. I don’t think.
