So we have arrived and all in one piece.

To start with our flight from Sydney was delayed 2 hours - good start. We only had an hour stop over in Bangkok, so that was a worry.

This flight was 9.5 hours long and Lucy wasn't the best passenger. They had booked out the seat between Billy and I so Lucy could have the seat, but by the time we left they had booked the flight up, adding passengers from another flight. So we had the whole flight trying to wrestle Lucy to sleep and passing her back and forward. Lucy did make a friend though - a little girl sitting behind us from Israel. Awesome little girl, pulled Lucy over the seat to play with her and took her for walks around the plane!

Arriving in Bangkok we were greeted by a lady holding a sign with our names on it - we then sprinted all the way to the gate (which wasn't close) to board the flight to Frankfurt.

Lucy was awesome on this flight plus they had given us seats to enable the use of the bassinet which was great. Allowed us all to sleep.

So from Frankfurt to London, and greeted by Amy at the station.

Amy kept us occupied for the day to keep us all from falling asleep. We got some lunch and headed to a beautiful park where Lucy could run and run and run. She actually made some friends - a school class had come down to play some sport so she went and visited them, even giving one of the little girls a hug!

Lucy fell asleep at about 5pm and despite trying to wake her for dinner she slept all the way through till 6am this morning - brilliant!

So today we are just doing the tourist thing around London. Tomorrow off to Stonehenge. Plenty of walking to be done - and this is only day 1!

Until next time....
