The Journey
After a not so early night - stupid MP3 player still having loads of space on it!
I was up at 5.30 so that I could finish packing and doing stuff like showering - but because I decided to eat it meant that we left late - again! can I never do anything where I get there early? maybe I should turn over a new leaf or whatever they say!!!
Anyway, needless to say Michelle was very glad when I turned up with only a minute before the train left... Oops - but at least I wasn't late!
The journey down to London was pretty uneventful - we had to be dead quite too because we were in the quiet car - It was only after the journey that we realised we should have been in Car F and not Car A - but oh well!
After we arrived into Kings Cross we had just enough time for a quick call to Toni and a toilet break before we had to head down to the tube station.
The tube ride was so OK I guess - it was quite busy though especially for that time of day heading in that direction! - took us straight to terminal 4 though!!!
It was a really quick check in really - we just had to drop our bags off because we were already checked in... at the airport all we did was eat at Weatherspoons as we were starving - we couldn't find TGI Fridays which was gutting!!!
I am now sat on the plane about 15 minutes from New York...
The flight has been a bit boring to be honest - I watched Juno which was awesome but nothing else really caught my eye so just watched bits of other films and some TV - only managed to sleep for about an hour though despite having two seats to myself and having no sleep hardly last night!
In New York
So after taking about 12 years to get through immigration again, we picked up our bags - ours were easy to spot as they were the only ones left pretty much! and headed for the city.
We were too tired to get the subway to Manhatten so we just caught a shuttle bus - it took about 40 minutes to get to the HI New York City where we are staying...
Its straight to bed for me I think - its been a very long day!!!
