My friend Chris who booked the trip has been giving me tips on travelling. She told me it would be alot cheaper to pack snacks, sandwiches and drinks on my own. She also said to bring a pillow and a small blanket, because the time I'm travelling is in the middle of the night and I'll want to sleep, seeing as the seats DO recline. Fine with me . I wish I could bring Moo with me though. I'll really miss him and his antics, not to mention someone warm and cuddly to sleep next to at night. I could sleep with my daughter's cat but she hates me Oh well, her loss.
