My afternoon is planned!
I’ll have a picture as soon as I can get my camera out and on fast enough to catch one of the London buses with the Superman Movie AD.
The movie was AWESOME!!!
Hyde Park to Harrods = Bad Idea.
So, I got this idea that Harrods wasn’t all that far from my hotel. It was just on the other side of the park. Yeah right. I only turned on my running app when I decided to come back, it was 1.02 miles so there and back again was 2.04 miles. Checking my fitbit I walked 6.4 miles today. I’m over my jetlag but now my back and left big toe are hurting.. You see the domed like building behind me, … way back there? Would have been another 5 minutes of walking according to the sign I used for support. 😦
But here are some pretty pictures I took while walking in Hyde Park.
So now what?
Good news first.. The fire alarm at 12:10am was a false alarm. Now how do I get back to sleep after that aerobic workout of running down 8 flights of stairs?
Day One London
Ok, made it into London. They did serve dinner and a breakfast on the plane. I didn’t sleep much cause the old dude behind me kept getting up and to use the bathroom. He had to use my headrest to pull himself up 😦 I could have also watched some of the newest released movies; however, my video screen didn’t work 😦
The room at the Thistle is not worth the price. It pretty beat up. Could use some new carpet and fresh paint on the walls. But wait the room lacks, it makes up for on location. it is very centrally located and can you can get to many of the tourist attraction with a short walk; if you are willing to brave London traffic. OMG, between the guys in suits riding bicycles to the messengers on motorcycles zipping in and out and between cars, I’m surprised there aren’t daily accidents.
Well, I’m off to find lunch and a mobile phone provider for data. I’m not digging using the “free” wifi at the hotel.
United Kingdom trip
I give up on Facebook and Google+ just going to post my trip stuff here.
So I’m sitting in the airport right now waiting to board British Airways flight to London. I’m so very excited to be taking my first trip to another country.
I’ll post more when I land and will include photos.
What have I been up to
Well since school ended a month or so ago I’ve pretty much just been watching TV and playing a new MMORPG called Eve Online. I did start a new flower bed in my backyard but its pretty hot here so its on hold until cooler temperatures arrive.
Church camp was this week and I helped film all the activities. I wish camcorders where so easy to use back when I went to camp so I could watch them again. I’m glad I’m being able to help these teenagers capture this point in time.
