Ex 3c
We set out very early, before dawn, and drove south. We stopped off at a service station for petrol and coffee. After this we carried on driving for another three hours. There were a lot of delays and hold-ups. We finally arrived at the aircraft museum at 2 p.m., and looked around the main sights. We didn’t checked in until midnight. It was a very tiring day.
