The title may not sound too optimistic as all in all it was a wonderful trip. It did have its challenges though. I have a feeling this is going to be a long post so put the kettle on and brew up a cuppa....okay are you ready? Here we go.... It didn't get off to a smooth start when my WestJet flight from Calgary to London Gatwick was canceled. Of course as with all these things you never know until pretty well the last minute. Maintenance issues were the cause which WestJet seems to have problems with on their London Gatwick route. After a lot of lining up and mass confusion (no WestJet staff to tell us where to go) and going through Canada customs again (because basically, we had been in "no man's" land) we were given vouchers for a hotel for the night as well as for meals and taxis. I was near the front of the line luckily. I was put up at the Hotel Clique which is above my usual standard so that was a treat. But I really had wanted to be on that flight
