... an elderly Indian lady sitting in it. I pointed out to her that she was in the wrong row and plonked myself down for the short 6 hour flight to Dubai. I had 2 seats to myself and loads of legroom. I recommend travelling on this plane and Emirates. The entertainment system has everything I could need!
By take off I already had made friends with a Bangladeshi woman who had been visiting her son in London who was studying law.

... hot in England but it just not my cats are glad to see and when we got back they seamed to be sulking then they were glad we were back.

... was all live and it was all fantastic, so I should say they did indeed rock me. Interestingly, a lot of the audience was from the Continent, judging from all the foreign languages I heard. It's not too surprising, considering that Queen's last big concert with Paul Rodgers was in the Ukraine.

Unforunately, Tuesday night was also the night where they were premiering the new Harry Potter movie in Leicester Square. Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson, Rupert Grint, and all ...

... ut genom de fina dörrarna, som man öppnade manuellt. Ett gott skratt fick vi och kände genast att resan började perfekt. Äntligen Liverpool street! Vi börjar genast med att vandra igenom staden kl. 18 på en Lördag, och hela staden ligger öde. Allt är nedstängt som om vi kommit under en period då militär evakuering råder. Vi börjar fundera lite på vart vi faktiskt kommit.... City 17? Parkbänk/Häkte? Vi måste ha sovplats! Våra magar står tomma ocks ...

... All the waiting paid off because we got front row tickets (at the student price!) The show was great! Like I said, I've never been into musicals but it was awesome. I would see it again in a heartbeat and would definitely recommend it to anyone. That night we ate dinner at Nando's a popular chain restaurant in England. Then we watched the England - Ukraine soccer match at a pub. The next day we walked around and visited all of the sites mentioned above. Ally and I took a tour of ...

... until next monday (haha sweet life... I know). Last night we went to the sports cafe which is a pub that stays open here until 3 am (pubs staying open that late is very uncommon, they tend to go out much earlier than in the U.S.) and it was college night so there were tons of students there from all around the world who are studying in London. They were going through the countries and everyone was cheering when the DJ said their ...

... to the hostel. After about the 3rd person ahead of me the lady puts the closed sign in the window and closes the window. um....just my luck....so not really sure what to do I go outside and try to figure out the bus system and how to get to my hostel. The bus that I was supposed to get on is no longer running, but I assumed it was another bus and tried to get a ticket. However, without euros in cash, I couldn't get a ticket, so I went back inside to search ...

I am writing this in a word document until I can upload to my travel blog. I'm in Gatwick airport in London. I'm nearing 24 hours of travel time. I'm sitting on the floor to the side of the Easyjet check-in stations, killing four hours before I can go through. I'm munching on a roll I saved from my airplane dinner because there is no way I am moving my luggage again to buy food. My wrists would give out on me. But don't get the gist that I'm complaining ...

... of people in the center. We grabbed some quick Indian food from a stand at the festival and it was so crowded we had to eat it on top of a garbage can! Later on Chris made friends with a bunch of guys who must have been about 18 and played some complicated drinking games with them before we finally headed home. It was late and we stopped in a small piano bar with some live music on our way back to our hotel.

... French paintings, porcelain, furniture and gold boxes. After a couple of hours, we were museumed out, so we wandered through the surrounding neighborhood (Marylebone), and did some window shopping. We also found a nice little pastry shop, and got some inexpensive snacks. After finishing our afternoon treat, we went back to our hotel to get ready for the show. We arrived back down at the West End around 7:00, and made our way to the Dominion Theater ...
