Christopher’s Manchester Weblog - Summer 2005 - Saturday and Sunday - Days 5 and 6 - Travelingman
Days 5 and 6 here…
On the Road Again
Well, Saturday and Sunday were days of travel, so I need to fill you all in.
East Didsbury to Manchester Piccadilly Train Station
I have gotten so tired of being late, running to make things, that I turned over a new leaf on this trip. From now on, I am getting to places early – so there will be no more travel problems (at least that’s the theory). Friday night I packed my bags for the trip (my backpack and two smaller bags, weight approximately 327lbs). Got up bright and early
Saturday at 5am, showered and was out the door at 5:40. My train from East Didsbury to downtown I thought left at 6:26, so I was giving myself almost 45 minutes to make a 20 minute walk. Took a little longer, so I didn’t arrive until 6:05. Realized then that the train didn’t come until 6:39. Okay, more of a buffer than I really needed, but I was safe and
sound waiting for my train.
