WE MADE IT!!!

hey ya'll!! well me and tamara landed this morning at 710 london time 110 winnipeg time! i'm sitting in a iternet cafe just a few seconds from our hostil! well our first experience was an interesting one! we landed fine, got our bags and went through customs. then asked around and took the underground to South kensington. just a short walk from the road aupon which were staying. well a 'short' walk turned out to be walking for an hour, putting my arm in bird poop when we wanted a break, we asked several people how to get to cromwell road and apperently londoners don't know there directions very well! cuz twom bus rides, hours of walking hunched over and four hours later we arrived at our destination! and check in was for another 4 hours but they allowed us to shower and sit in the commen room until then, no way were we walking any more! so we sat on the couches listening to the convo's around us! very interesting, but we were exausted so we asked if we could check in 1/2 hour early and it was fine so we went up to our room and had a 3 hour nap! lovely after no sleep! we woke and walked a short distance to Sainsbury to buy some food, pb and J! and then had a picnic on our floor! the streets are very difficult to wander cuz the street signs are posted on buildings or fences instead of an actual sign! very misleading! and the drivers are cRaZy! those double decker buses just squeeze in ANYWHERE! so its 643 and were going to go for a walk and check out the nieghborhood! the weather is lke home but not as balmy! thank goodness! i miss you all! and ps if you leave a comment write your name, so i know who its from! also janell was that last one from you? hope you all have a wonderful day and i shall talk to you all later!
luv always
Amy
