Today he was leaving.
I was really trying to be brave but I had a suspicion it wouldn’t hold at the airport.

I made us breakfast and Brett got ready.

My roommate Tamara had been on the Greek Islands and she arrived home that morning.
Brett was able to meet and chat with her for all of about half an hour!

We caught the tube to the airport and got Brett checked in.
We went and had a drink and tried to pass the time.
Brett decided he was going in and gave me a hug to say goodbye.
I could feel the tears coming but he said “You’re not going to cry are you? Don’t”.
So I didn’t.
Simple as that.
And he was gone.

I had a fabulous time with him visiting
and despite the walking and bus rides and hostels I think he did too!
