Thursday Gnome Report -London Arrival

Busy Heathrow, Long Ride to Town

HEY, GUYS!  After a restless night trying to sleep, we made it into Heathrow Airport in the morning just about breakfast time.  I was restless because I am sooo excited about seeing my cousin Prints again after all these years that I had trouble sleeping.  And adding to the excitement was our landing… right over the tops of a housing tract!

I'll bet that those people have trouble selling their house when they want to move.

The British Air terminal was jammed, too!  I asked somebody why so many people were there and it turns out there is another wedding tomorrow, too.  That other couple must have a lot of friends because they just kept on coming.

I had to get a bus to take me into town where I'm staying at the Royal Kingnome Hotel, a really posh place , the Brits call it.  It's a nice day and I chose to ride in one of London's famous open-air buses.

After I check in to the hotel, I will get a light lunch and then recover from the jet lag.  Busy, busy day tomorrow.  I'll check back with you then.

Cheerio!!
