Live... from London!

This morning I made it to London, Heathrow. Everything went really well on the flight and through customs, etc. No bags lost (thank god!) Although I am sure I may have the heavist suitcases on the airplane. When I picked up my bags I of course also choose the only carrier that swerves left... so I was constantly pushing right... it was a battle. The hotel I am staying at has wireless internet (whhooo!), hence my reasoning for getting on and updating everyone!



London was my parent's first post when they were 28 and 32... close to my age. Intersting that we all have taken on adventures later in our 20's. Because I was only in London until I was 3, there were no scenes that came back to me today as I was walking around. Maybe a trip to the playground would have sparked some memories!

Today I toured around London- did the classic stuff- Buckingham Palace, London Tower, Westminister Abbey, and watched a crew set up for an outdoor concert for the Scissor Sisters. For the first half of my morning I was walking around London with Fergie's "London Bridges" song in my head... not cool. Stopped in at the National Art Gallery and then just walked around town... it was great! Nice to be off an airplane and am so glad that I decided not to continue on to Nairobi today.

Tomorrow morning I have to be at the airport 3.5 hours in advance of the flight as secruity has gotten even tighter in London, which is a good thing and as long as I give myself plenty of time I won't panic. Anyways...attached are more photos of London- enjoy and I will put some up on Shutterfly as well. Will try to report from Nairobi sometime on Monday!! Yeahoo!
