Tuesday 1st of July
Hey Kids
So we made it to london ok and despite all everyone's dire predictions about english weather its really hot ( yes actually no kidding) we just about boiled yesterday with our jeans and hot plane clothes on!!!
The second leg of our flight was long. but we did get some sleep. the A380 was really cool, a tiny bit more room and big movie screens!! they served us tolberone for supper!!!
we arrived in London at 6am!! ahh but it took age4s to get through customs, after we had waited in the rest of the world line for ages the lady told us we could have gone through the British passports line which had about ten people in it!!!!
Jeremy survived his first trip on the tube, not eventful!! and we went and saw the changing of the guard at Buckingham palace!! that was really cool, it was way longer than we expected, they even had a brass band playing music and stuff!!
then cos we were pretty shattered we wandered round Hyde park for the afternoon and just chilled out in the sunshine!!! yes sunshine in London !!! i even got burnt!!
the hotel we're staying in is really small, only fit us and our packs into he room and have to go up three steps to get into bathroom which is super mini!!!
today's plan is to see the tower of London, the globe and st Paul's so will tell u all about it tomo
love Gem and Jez

Man you guys sound like you're having fun!! While I'm working at home for the morning today because there's a truck protest on and the motorway is super packed and blocked so that I won't be able to get to work!! I'm really hoping that they don't block the bridge later in the day because that would be seriously inconvenient for me getting to work!! Anyway, enough about me, I hope you guys are having a blast and you take lots of photos! I'm so sad that I didn't get to see you before you went but that can't be helped... Do you have an eta on when you're cming home - or will I be able to come visit you over there in a couple of years?! :)
ReplyDeleteMust go and do some work!!
Take care and have a blast :)xxoo
Jo - Awesome to hear from you. The weather can't be that bad in Adeleide!
ReplyDeleteKate - How exciting (and inconvenient) about the truck protest. Hope it settles down for you soon. We might be home in a couple of years but come over and visit us here soon!!
