First Day!

---

Hi everyone,

I've arrived in London safe and sound. The plane trip was fine, singapore airlines was pretty good you could play nintendo and everything and the food was good.

I barely slept on the plane, I was way to excited but the trip went so much quicker than I expected (probably because they gave us so much food to keep us occupied). I got here at about six in the morning and by the time we got through the airport and everything it was about eight when I got to my hotel. I was buggered and dying for a shower. I wasn't meant to check in until about three pm but they girl at the counter said they had a room available but it was a smoking one. I probably normally wouldn't choose a smoking room but I was relieved at being able to collapse on a bed that I said I would take it without hesitation.

I planned on not sleeping during the day so I could sleep at night and my time zones would be all normal but this didn't happen, I went for a stroll in Hyde park and on sitting down I could feel myself drifting off in the middle of the park so I knew I had to take a nap. I set my alarm for midday but didn't hear it and woke up again about five pm.

Went wandering around the city. It was ok, most shops were closed but I plan on starting all the touristy things in the morning when I'm awake properly and in less of a daze.

I had dinner at 'The Swan' and had roast beef with yorkshire pudding and veggies. The beef was dry but the pudding was great and I had a nice rose'.

Thats about all I did today, I will be going to sleep soon which isn't very exciting, but I'll be having plenty of late nights on the tour and quite frankly sleep is all I feel like doing at the moment.

I feel I should end with 'miss you all' or something but I've only been gone less than two days and I don't see most people I know that often anyway but I'm sure I will miss everyone, I already miss Glenn and wish I'd brought him with me.

luv Haylz xoxo
