I hadn’t a clue as to what I was getting myself into when I rented a car and headed toward London. It was really a last minute trip. I was in the United States Air Force and stationed at the Naval Air Base in Iceland. Each week some of our KC-135 refueling airplanes would fly off to the RAF Fairford Air Base in England. Rather spontaneously I found someone to be responsible for my duties, received leave, and jumped a hop on one of the outgoing KC-135s.
When I landed in England I was able to get reservations for a hotel room in London and grab a rental car. I checked the map and headed toward London where I quickly became snarled in the worst traffic I have ever been in, before or since. My blood pressure rises into the danger zone just thinking about the honking taxis and double decker buses. Traffic in London was scarier than any horror movie I have ever seen. Cars were swarming like African Killer Bees.
Where there are that many cars there is a need for parking and Garages in London. Park Let is the largest supplier of monthly contract parking to individuals and businesses throughout the UK. They are an important resource in the marketplace for parking spaces and garages for rent in London, Manchester, Leeds, Birmingham, and all other UK towns and cities. If you need a space they can help you find it. If you have a spare parking space in your driveway they can help you let it. If you no longer need a spot, they can help you sell it. Check them out.

When it comes to girls, every teenage boy needs a little helpful advice from someone who as already walked that path. I laugh just thinking of the scene from “Back To The Future” where George McFly, taking the advice of Marty, states his love for Lorraine. With the pathos of a suitor reading his lines from a notebook, George declares, “You are my density!” What? He had the letters in the wrong order, he meant to say “destiny”.
Like a teenage boy needing advice on girls from someone who has been there, so every traveler needs guidance from someone who has been there. If you get that advice from the wrong place or get the details skewed you can end up with density rather than at your destiny. That is where Destinia comes in.
Destinia is a Spanish online travel agency that is expanding into the English language market. As such, it not as well known as some of those who have been operating in the English market for awhile. But, it will be soon and it will be exciting to see the new ideas and opportunities that Destinia introduces in English market.
Before you take your next trip, check out possible hotels and flight arrangements with Destinia, as well as information on show tickets and more. If you don’t, you may very well end up in density rather than at your destiny.
