I realized upon my arrival in London that I visited Claus in Cologne and Logan in London. My life is inherently poetic!
So I got home from Germany on Monday evening, then had an evening flight on Wednesday to London. I was so happy, I figured out the express bus to the airport! I really wanted to know how to do it so that when my parents came to visit I would be an expert. This was my first time flying with Easy Jet, a budget airline. Besides being cheaper, it was different in that seats weren’t assigned–it was first come, first served–and you were only allowed one piece of carryon luggage, not one piece + a personal item (purse or whatever). That meant I had to severely limit my packing so that my camera bag could fit in my duffel, but it was worth it! I love that camera bag. Although I maybe need to invest in a small padded camera wrap or something for future trips.
Logan (a friend from the Quad Cities who attends college in London) greeted me at the airport with a cup of Starbucks tea (woo England!) and then we took a bus and cab to his apartment, a nice 3-story house in southwest London near Wimbledon. The layout of his house was really cool: two bedrooms and a bathroom on the first floor, kitchen and living/dining room on the second floor, two bedrooms and a bathroom on the third floor. So it was like two separate apartments with a shared kitchen and living/dining room.
The next day, Logan and I set out to explore London a bit. Luckily, he has Thursdays off from “uni,” as they call it!
