Flights and Day 1 in London

Sunday, June 17 was the first day of my trip. I flew from Tallahassee to Atlanta. Then, I took an overnight flight from Atlanta to the Heathrow airport in London. I sat next to a friendly, college-aged girl named Brittany. She lives in London but is originally from a smaller fishing village. She gave me TONS of tips and advice on what to see, do, and not do while I'm in London.

 


I arrived at the London airport on the morning of the 18th (today) I took a shuttle to my hotel whereI was met by my first tour director, Eric. So far the weather is nice - chilly, but not bad. After a quick lesson from Eric, I took a bus, managed the tube, and rode the London Eye all by myself! Now I'm off to meet everyone in my group tonight for dinner. Can't wait!
 

Here is me at the Tallahassee airport, ready to depart.

 

 

And, here I am upon arrival (exhausted).

 

These are some pretty cliffs along the coast that I could see just before we landed in London.


Lastly, here I am on the London Eye (so neat)!
