I'm on the plane!!! Woke up about 5.30 and made it out of the building about an hour later. To cut a long story short I've been pn 4 seperate trains, walked from one train station to the other, been down an up countless stairs and I can't even remember how many moving floors and esculators, all with peak hour commute and carting around 30kg. Got to the plane just as they were starting to board which i thought was a pretty good effort! There was even a train in the airport to go from customs to our gate (65) I think i might get a bit fit if I have days like the last 2, although Andrea tells me about a phenomena known as 'Heathrow Injection' where everyone who enters London leaves 7kg heavier, lets see if i follow the trend. Made it to Karens and into the bed (yes, bed thats in lounge that they use as a couch, so comfy) and zonked out.

The scenery on the flight over was amazing, as mostly all of it was cloud free! Deserts in China, over the Western Siberian Lowlands with amazing lakes of ice and snow. Was listening to Queen over Ural Mountains, came right across St. Petersberg and just to the south of Copenhagen, the towns must have all the same archetecture as there was just rown and rows of brown buildings, couldn't have seen more of the top of the world if I tried!

Geography lesson
SO lucky to have window seats and a clear view. I bet you are glad you only had 2 bags to cart around , even though you would have still looked like a pack horse.
