Day 14: Frankfurt to London

Today was dedicated to leaving Germany and getting to London.

Piggy got a window seat

a 1 hour flight, not too hard to handle

no-body had the spare seat in our row so Piggy got one all to himself

we were allowed to use phones during takeoff and landing (in flight mode)

pretty views as we leave Germany

I have a super sore throat and had to "struggle" through a scotch on the plane.

Piggy had 2.

Piggy you alcoholic!

I can see it!

A few clouds but mostly sunny in London

Once arriving in London, we took the tube to Russell Square in the city where we're staying.

Yay we're in London

the views of London

We checked in to our hotel, sorted some stuff out for our stay here and headed back to the tube to visit Stephanie and Ian from church in Upper Moutere (they actually live here at the moment). I guess that makes it a work trip and Chris can claim 40 000 kms travel allowance? We took the stairs (down to the underground platform) at the train station, 175 stairs - equivalent to 15 stories. Then we took the Piccadilly line toward Cockfosters... Yes that's correct. We had a good British beer, warm of course. And it was a great night with Stephanie and Ian.
