Day 50 - en route to Rome

9:35am our time, awaiting the taxi to go to Birmingham Airport, Alan looking forward to his full English before we takeoff, Sue still checking ....... 

12:35pm    Now sitting in the executive lounge at Birmingham, for some reason they believe we have Elite Silver  membership of Singapore Airlines Krisflyer program so we got priority through security which meant missing all the queue and now free drinks. We could all get used to this.....

OK John, this is not in the lounge, but we did get there........

 

happy travellers, except for grumpy at the back..            The Alps through the clouds

 

Hotel Columbus - first view                                              Pope's house

 

three poms near a fountain, cue for song...                     St Peter's Square, with the big needle....
