Hello from the UK! It's Charissa and I can't believe its day 2 of my epic adventure with Felicia and Jacinta! I arrived into London Heathrow at just after 9am yesterday after having Jacinta over at my place the day before (She was visiting me in Calgary before a wedding in Canada).

Generally, I love flying and am eager to have that "hermit time" where interaction with other people is minimal and I can sleep, eat and watch crappy movies to my hearts content. however, this was the exception, as I was stuck next to a woman who kept on elbowing me the entire flight. For a larger woman, she has surprisingly bony elbows! And of course,to go with the extremely full flight, I was seated behind a bunch of babies  and in front of the seat kicker.... boooooo!

Anyhow, after I arrived and spent an eternity waiting to pass customs, Felicia picked me up and we went on to the place we are staying temporarily.

After a quick lunch and a lovely little jaunt in the countryside with the doggies, we headed into the hamlet of West Byfleet where we did a bit of op-shopping (aka: going to the thrift shop) and got some groceries.

Now this morning, since I've caught up on my sleep and since I've adjusted fairly well to the time change, we're off to London Central for lunch with some of Fe's friends and more shopping!!!

Cheers,

C

PS: the bag I brought over to travel with only weighs 9kg! More to come on what brought with me :)
