We have made it to London! We survived the long-haul flight, to be greeted by another connection, this time the tube.

We struggled to have enough cash on us to buy our transport cards (oyster cards) and with our bank cards not working, we had to pull all our strings (cards) together to get enough loaded onto them. 2 tubes & 1 train later and we had made it to our accomodation for the night.

We were staying with one of my Mum's friends, Ruth & her family. We took our bags upstairs, showered, changed, unpacked a little and tried not to fall asleep.

Today was a boring day, consisting of errand running. Firstly, emailing about VISA issues for Calvin, setting up bank accounts and getting sim cards for our phones! The day was not without hurdles, but throughout we enjoyed a big bowl of noodles from our favourite Greenwich noodle shop!

We relaxed at home, and cooked some deliciou pasta for tea before crashing with an early night!
