I spent the night at a Hilton near Heathrow. My plan had been to take the Heathrow Express
into London but then I found that the hotel was actually reached by a shuttle
that ran only every half-hour and cost 9 pounds round trip. I decided not to backtrack to Heathrow and
got in a good workout at the hotel gym and had an enjoyable dinner at the
Indian restaurant on the property, before falling into an exhausted sleep,
awakening 11 hours later after my alarm went off.

Back to Heathrow the next morning. I enjoyed a couple of hours in the Departure
Lounge before boarding my flight to Delhi. The flight was uneventful and we landed at 1:20 AM. Unfortunately the car for which I'd pre-paid because I did NOT want to be stuck at Delhi Airport without a working cell phone at 1:20 in the morning didn't show. I found a taxi service that took credit cards and the trip cost less than the one for which I'd already paid- only about $15.
