Good Bye Bangkok Hello London

So we had to fly out for london at 1:50pm. We got up at about 8:30am had a last massive brekkie and then relaised it was about 1030am and got our days excercise by running around the streets of Bangkok asking where the post office was by showing people a letter. We eventually found the post office and sent a package and a few letters an bday cards. We then ran back to the hotel hauled our bags down to the lobby and got a taxi to the airport.... after your sweaty and hot from running around and carring what feels like 50kgs its not great to hear the taxi driver say ...what airport? I was like isnt there only one freakin airport? I was relieved to see signs on the freeway with planes on them. We ended up at the correct airport and had plenty of time to listen to winging pommy kids and there parents as we waited to board our plane.

The flight was ok, not as good as the first they only had prawn curry (not impressed). But we both slept more this flight. Glen and I both agree we would go mental going from Sydney to London in one flight!

We arrived in London about 6pm and it was approx 8 degrees c. Hethrow airport was a bit of a hole if you ask me. We got our shuttle bus to our hostel. On the way we saw heaps of fireworks due to Guy Faulks (bon fire) night. As we drove through LOndon we admired the funny looking taxis, old architecture and red buses. Our hostel room has two single bed....very romantic and is about the size of the bathrooom we had in Bangkok. We were hungry when we got there so ventured into the cold to find food. Yes there were some places open at 10pm but we are still converting pounds to Aussie dollars (its painful) after 25mins we found Maccas and got two same meals as bkk this time for about $16 (oohhh the humanity). We went back to the hostel cold and ready for bed.

Glen dosnt fit in the bed there are wood planks at each end and he is too long so he has to curl up I heard him smack his head and the wall a few times last night (poor glenny).
