Transfer from MSP to LHR: City Gal Transport. Ginny got us to the airport on time and with a pleasant ride. We enjoyed meeting and getting to know her--and look forward to hearing about her upcoming trip when we return.
Sunday, April 23, was bike boxing day. We are always a little tense before the bikes are ready to fly. It takes a while to get them apart, fit them into their boxes, and protect the important bits, but we always manage in the end. It's just that the bikes add a layer of complexity to our travel, and getting them to our destination safely is a challenge.
Tuesday, April 25, Ken took Izzie to the kennel.
Wednesday, April 26, was fly day. Ginny at City Gal Transport arrived exactly on time, just as we finished our last loads of laundry and dishes and were locking the door behind us. And we were off!

| It was a little too chilly and wet to box the bikes in the garage, so we brought them into the living room. |

| My bike is ready to drop into the box. For the first time, we had boxes big enough that we didn't need to remove the rear wheel and rack. That really simplified disassembly--and reassembly. |
