After a couple hours delay at DFW, we made it into the air for our eight and half hour journey to London. We enjoyed some movies during dinner, then I promptly fell asleep for at least 4 hours! Great way to pass the time. We landed in London around 10:30 a.m. (4:30 a.m. Dallas time), wound our way through the UK Border Agency and customs, collected our bags and shoved all of our stuff in a taxi. I wish I had taken a picture of our creatively arranged baggage in the taxi, it was definitely an accomplishment!
A few minutes after making it to John and Michelle’s flat, we all thought it was time for a nap. Now we are forcing ourselves awake so we can sleep better tonight. It’s 4:00 now and almost dark outside – this could take some getting used to! We are heading out for some dinner and then are planning on a quiet night in, since our train to Edinburg leaves at 8:00 a.m. tomorrow.

Dark at 4pm? Sounds like Chicago.
Glad you got there safe and sound. Can’t wait to hear more stories!
