Things I've Learned So Far

1) I'm never flying US Airways again. You know…… besides the flights home in 12 days. Both our flights were cramped and awful and I thought the flight from Charlotte to London would never end!! So. Long. We cat-napped some but didn't actually get any sleeping done.

2) ALWAYS bring snacks on planes. I don't know why we didn't think of this until we almost died of starvation after accidentally not eating for over ten hours…… twice.

3) I don't think I like marmalade! Sad.

4) Skype is awesome.

5) If you get separated from your traveling companion and lost on the Tube for an hour, follow signs and ask friendly British girls for help. Also, don't forget to mind the gap.

6) Sleep is a miracle.

7) B&Bs rock. But I need to ask for another pillow…

Okay, time for a quick nap and then it's off to the British Museum! Woooo!

T-minus…

4 days, 9 hours, and 9 minutes until our plane leaves for ENGLAND!!

I've got travel-sized toothpaste and tennis shoes and three books (really want to bring four—it's tough), so I think I'm pretty much set. Oh and maps. We bought maps the other day. I feel like it was a definite step in the right direction. :-)

Now there's only 7 minutes. :-)
