Day 0 - LHR to DEN

Sun 24 May

Hot day in London, reaching 32°C in the afternoon. Hoppa bus didn't turn up at our hotel, so we had to make our way to Terminal 3 through a different bus to T5, and then the Heathrow Express, which delayed us for bag drop. Quick bite to eat, and then it was time to board - this was delayed due to the plane overheating, and then when we were eventually allowed to board we had to sit for the best part of 1h30 on a plane with no air-conditioning (it was over 30C on board) whilst engineers outside tried to fix it - very uncomfortable is an understatement!

Eventually, 2 hours after we should have departed, we were eventually on our way across the North Atlantic, via southern Greenland, to Denver. Fairly quick process through the airport, onto the shuttle bus and picked up our hire car - with a nice sunset over the Rockies to end the day.
