We got up early this morning and drove the motorhome to near the restrooms, so we didn´t have to walk to them in the rain.  Got cleaned up, dumped the grey water and headed to Mulheim am der Ruhr to return the motorhome.  Got there, filled with diesel and parked at McRent at 8:45 AM.  They showed up at exactly 9:00 AM and we checked it in.  Called a taxi and went to the Essen Hauptbahnhof where we are waiting for the bus which leaves at 5:30 PM for London.  We will get to London at 6:00 AM.  Looked around  the stores in central Essen.  Am posting this in a Casino at the Hauptbahnhof, best connection we have had in Europe.  The Taxi cost 25 euros.  We had been considering a combination of bus and trains, this was a lot nicer, woman taxi driver.
