Hi!!!! We made it to London! I am SUPER jetlagged which is why im wide awake posting this at 2:30 in the morning! When we first got to the airport and we were checking our bags, they had to be 23 kilograms (50 pounds) or less, so our bags weighed like 22.6 kilos, 23.0, 22.2, etc. Then we did a bunch of boring things like security, and buying food and charging our electronics. Then we got on the plane. It was a really nice plane. It was one of those that has the screens on the backs of the seats so you can watch movies and play games and even order room service! It was all free, so I watched modern family for about 6 hours! After, that my mom said i needed to sleep so I slept for about 2 hours and went back to watching movies. In the morning, we got breakfast on the plane, which was disgusting but I didn't expect it to be good. We got to London at 11 am (so I think thats 3 am in CA). Luckly, all our luggage made it (which was good because we had 12 pieces of luggage). (Ok so heres where the story gets interesting)... So we couldn't find the person who was supposed to drive us to the house and my mom kept calling him on the phone trying to clarify where we needed to be. But, clearly english was not his first language, so half the time we couldn't even understand him. Then my mom decided to let my dad talk to him. Then for the next 10 minutes my dad stood in the middle of the street yelling into the phone. My dad got so frustrated so hes like, "Here I'm giving the phone to this police officer and HE will tell you where we are!" Finally, we found the driver and he was not happy at all. The whole ride home he kept yelling at us about how bad we were or something! I tuned him out with head phones, but I remember him saying things like "And I call you and you say 'im on level 2' so i go to level 2 and theres nobody there so I drive 10 milez alzee way out here and the you call so I have to turn alzee way around to come find you and blah de blah de blah de.....". And we had to listen to that the WHOLE WAY HOME. I swear we apologized like a thousand times, but that wouldn't stop him from venting. He didn't talk with all the 'zees', but decided to change his accent to make it more interesting. Well, we made it to the house and Woww my post is really long........... I wajt to thank everyone who actually read this whole post! I would tell you about the rest of the day but i think I'll do you a favor by not making this longer. So to sum it all up we made it and we are fine! Ooh guess what, I'm getting a phone tomorrow! Okay, I'm done posting. I'll post more later! --Laurel :)
