Hi Team.
Well I made it to London, after a day or so of flying. Had an awesome flight from Korea to Heathrow, i made friends with Sam and Tania, both travelling solo and both from melbourne. So we all just kept swapping seats and chatting and then playing in flight tetrix against eachother. It made the 11 hour flight go so much quicker. I had 3 seats to myself, so that was brilliant and so did Tania so we were all at eachothers seats for most fo the time! Sams moving to london for 10 months or so and his mrs is already here. Tania is going to Dublin for a while to catch up with mates and may get work and stay a while. We all got on swimmingly and swapped numbers for future catch ups, so whats tops!
Its stiffling hot here! Would you believe... got off the plane and nearly melted... 29 degrees at like 6pm.. crazy town! I met Em in town and we then went back to her flat in Bellview... and i was explained WHy its called bellview... but shame, we didn't spot any of the 'Ladys of the night' parading last night....
Ems and i went into southend and got a bite to eat and then by the time we did that and got home its was 10:30pm and i had been up for a VERY long time, so i crashed out in emmas bed while she slept on the sofa. what a darl!!!
I woke up at my own leisure this morning and got the train to town and then went down to Tower bridge and did a spot of sightseeing and wandering down the bank of the thames. Grabbed a late lunch and then went to Borough Market which was cool to wander.
I also found the oldest Gothic Church in london in Southwark which was pretty cool, got a snaperoo of that to add to the pile!
I now find myself just a few spots down from London Bridge station waiting for miss Emma to walk from work, then we are heading to WAGGA MAMMAS for dinner.. its liek a japanese food chain store, its pretty shwoittt!!!!
THEN the most exciting.... I will be seeing DARREN later this evening down at Canary Wharf for a bevoir or two!! I am so stoked to see him.. (for those of you who don't know, Darren was one of the cool kids from Contiki last year, he's from South Africa and has just moved to London working for Barclays bank..) he's a legend!!!!
Tomorrow Em and I have the day at our perel, so who knows what we will do... But Friday night we are going to a pub with Cristina and some of the other gals. so that should be sweet.
Saturday Em, Cristina and I are going to a fete at Regents Park, its like all traditional and old school with stalls and fairy floss and fun things!!! so can't wait.... then Sunday is Family day with Ems family for her Gramps b'day.. we are heading to some giant park for a day of fun and games.
Emz and I are hoping to catch a theatre show Sat night, so i've got the guide to look at whats on... theres only about 8 i want to see ha ha... grease, hairspray, phantom, ... i wish we will rock you was still on, coz i know for sure ema and i would see that, but whaddaya know its NOT!!!
So i've got a fun filled few days in front of me. Laurence has already text me and is excited for my arrival on Monday! My flight to Nice is at 1.40pm.. for arrival about 4pm france time i think!
