Monday 18 October

Got the bus to the airport, which was more difficult as the pod, now out of its box, would not stay on the trolley!  Once at the terminal, as it only had foam taped around it as protection, Gerry had it wrapped completely in cling film.  After all his trouble, when he checked in, the staff didn’t even weigh it!  The flight was good and uneventful all the way to Orlando although the American immigration process took 1 hour.  Checked into hotel in Orlando, not a great hotel but ok to sleep and assemble the bike ready for the off early tomorrow.
