Planning for our Visit to Scotland

 

 

We couldn't end our cruises in the U.K. without visiting Iain's family in Prestwick, Scotland.  

Iain's Sister and Brother-In-Law, Evelyn and  Alex, are opening their home to us.   Looking forward to seeing all of his nieces and their young ones.   It's been over two years so we are sure will be surprised on how they have grown up. 

I booked a car service to pick us up at Southampton City Pier and take us to Terminal 5 at Heathrow.    Our favorite car service, Smith's has shut down at the beginning of the year, so I had to scramble to find a new car service with a good reputation.   Many good suggestions on Cruise Critics and we settled for Blackberry.  The rate is about 100 UK pounds for a 2+ hour drive. 

Usually when we fly home from Scotland we have to either stay at the airport or get up before the roosters.  This time we decided to fly to Heathrow the day before our return flight and overnight at the airport.   It should make it a much more comfortable journey home.
