June 11 - London, England

The flight to England was a good one. Carlie and I both had aisle seats which meant that we weren’t sitting by each other. Boo. There were two seats between us and we decided to ask the people in between to switch us. Who wouldn’t want an aisle instead of a middle right? Plus then they could sit by each other and then so could we… perfect. Well something even more perfect happened… the people that were supposed to sit between us never showed up for the flight!!! Yeah! The flight attendant said that the plane was sold out/booked so they would be coming but they never did. All the way to England they never showed up. LOL. (I figured when they weren’t there at take off that we were pretty safe.) It was nice for us to lay out and sleep and just to be able to stretch and have extra room. I wish that could happen on every flight!

We went around London today and boy it was expensive! Oii oii! We went on a double decker bus tour and although I wished that we could have gotten off and looked around much more (we were with a group and had limited time) my favorite part was when we got separated from our group (although I did feel bad about that because we had this guy named John’s train pass) we went on a boat ride and we went underneath the London Bridge. You know… the one we sing about… lol. It was really fun. We also had fish and chips for lunch, it was good but the fish was fried with the skin still on – so hard to eat. We looked very unfashionable heading to Africa while everyone else looked very nice and dressed up. However, here are some things you should not do:

1) Wear a thong when you are wearing low riding pants and a belly shirt. (It looks funny when it is just resting in the middle of your back visible to all.)

2) Wear a jacket and bra with your jacket hanging off one shoulder (and down to the elbow) making your bra very visible for all to see.

3) When you are 40 (or any age) don’t have your boyfriend give you a hickey on your neck that is as big as a fifty cent piece, it’s just ugly.

I'll add pictures from London when I get home (sorry Internet is TOO SLOW here)!
