Nov 2006

Left home (Melbourne) today for a 8:30pm flight to London. The flight left a little late due to rain and thunder but we were soon off in the air for 26 longs hours of bad food, crap movies and horrible babies crying -the usual. I arrived in London around lunchtime and hopped on the Tube for the first time- dont know what people really complain about - compare it to Melbourne and you'll see whats better. Got a few things then went to my hostel - Smart Hyde Park Inn - in bayswater. I wandered around the local area for a while to get my bearings but was in bed at 4pm exhausted and probably somewhat jetlagged.
