We left the Hotel at about 04.30 with the couple from Portland who dropped us off at our Terminal before they took their rented vehicle back. There were already many people waiting to check in but the Premier line queue was short and we were able to check in within 10 minutes.
The queue for Security was long and not very efficient compared to our last visit on Friday night where they went through, take out all Pc's notebooks, laptops etc , take off shoes and and belts but this time no such thing. We did not have to take shoes off or take out computer stuff from hand carry which seems very strange to me.
Being there early meant we had to hand around a bit but finally we started boarding a bit late as their was extra security at the airport apparently??, not that you could tell from the official security line, however finally we got on board and then we finally left about an hour late. This delay was due to the Handling Company double labeling some cases and they need to check??
The flight passed quite quickly for eight hours and we both agreed that Norwegian in Premier Class is excellent value for money compared to Virgin, BA etc and we will certainly fly with them again.
We arrived back at Gatwick and baggage was quite fast arriving and then home for about 22.45 hrs rather tired but pleased to be home due to the delays but not pleased to be home because of the weather.
We both enjoyed this holiday very much and the good weather meant that we could do lots of walking and of course swimming which was good for both of us and we are planning to go back again next year.
This update is being done a couple of days late due to many things to do when you get home but one interesting and stupid in my view is the reports in the papers that the Florida State Government had two bills to discuss earlier this week, one regarding the ability to purchase guns and the one about pornography affecting children. Well they spent about three minutes on debating guns and then taking no action, considering the mass shooting of school kids in Florida last week, whilst they decided they would take action with regard to pornography as it affected kids. I cannot believe this stupidity , guns will do more damage to kids lives than porn ever will. florida-house-refuses-to-debate-guns-but-declares-porn-dangerous/
