After 22 hours on a Jumbo Jet to Singapore and an A380 Airbus we safely
arrived at Heathrow on time at 6am London time. Despite dire warnings about
Customs delays we were through in the blink of an eye. Our first of many trips
on the Underground system took us to Katrina & James place which was to be
home for the next three days.
London weather was kind and we spent our few days playing tourist and
getting our bodies back into sync. Highlights on this, our second trip to
London, included the London Eye, Greenwich Village, Royal Observatory and
parklands, Tate Modern Gallery, British Museum, St Pancras Station and St Paul's Cathedral. It is impossible to
ignore that London is to play host to the Olympic Games. The countdown clock at
Greenwich showed 77 days to go and the city is abuzz with construction activity
to have everything in readiness.
Sunday was our travel day after bidding farewell to our wonderful hosts and
departing London for the sea port of Felixstowe.
