I'm just about to go buy my ticket to the underground and head into central London... More later from my 23 hour layover in London!

Wanna go down like London?
I have arrived in London! Yea! The flight went well... cramped and long, but good. When I was sitting in Houston waiting to board my flight to London, a girl came and sat next to me. We got to talking and I found out she's my age and this was her first time to travel alone too. She'd had a rough time so far; she's a Mexican citizen and had been detained and missed her connecting flights. She was added to my flight last minute. After a bit of talking she asked where my seat was. Sure enough, her seat was right next to mine! It made the wait and the flight to London a little bit easier to have someone friendly to talk to and we were able to help each other out too. :)

We're so glad you arrived safely! Just count your blessings that you're not 6'2". Thanks for the update!
ReplyDeleteThis royal throne of kings, this sceptred isle,
ReplyDeleteThis earth of majesty, this seat of Mars,
This other Eden, demi-paradise,
This fortress built by Nature for herself
Against infection and the hand of war,
This happy breed of men, this little world,
This precious stone set in the silver sea,
Which serves it in the office of a wall
Or as a moat defensive to a house,
Against the envy of less happier lands,-
This blessed plot, this earth, this realm, this England.
i'm jealous...
