The adventure begins

Flight from home was long........ but the A380 airbus from Sydney to Dubai (14 hours) was superb. We arrived at Heathrow for a 1 hour 30 minute wait at immigration  because there seemed to be many people from the middle east and they certainly questioned them at length. When we got to the counter they didn't even ask Chas to remove his hat. It took all of 10 secs and we were through. We found our baggage in the shambles of the baggage claim area and headed to the rental car depot. They directed us onto the M4 and said it would take us east. ... LOST IN LONDON but after about 2 hours and some help headed in towards Colchester arriving after dark.
Currently on the ferry to Holland after completing our first 44kms to Harwich... only 6000 odd kms left to go! Photos will be posted later.
