Just got back from London, Brussels, Paris, and Antwerp. (only stayed 27.5 hours) It was pouring out, and were tired when we arrived back in London:

We had gone

MSN - ORD U*
ORD - LHR UA 929
LHR - BRUSSELS BD

In Brussels our friends picked us up, went o Gent, had lunch, and then went to pick up the new BMW M5 (A WONDERFUL CAR!!!)

Drove the car from ANTWERP - PARIS
Dinner in Paris (Taillvent) A WONDERFUL resteraunt. 3*** Michelin guide.

Then flew CDG - LHR that night. BD
Took taxi from LHR - MAYFAIR INTERCONTINENTAL (35 pounds plus 5 pound tip)

Next morning:

Took HEATHROW EXPRESS 17 dollars a person?? Who are they kidding? For the inconvenience -- we too only had hand luggage -- I'd take a taxi.
LHR - ORD UA 929
ORD - MSN UA EXPRES 5559

UA great service -- got upgraded to F class from C class because of the crowded flight. Some luck 1K's got an upgrade to C class on a V class ticket. They were an old couple.

Well, That is my two cents worth on LHR Express.
