Day 1: Jet-lagged and Hungry

At 10:50 pm last night my fellow Londoner Emily and I boarded our plane to what is guaranteed to be the most amazing experience of our lives! (Our flight was on time despite the storm the day before, Of course, three hours (at best) of sleep on a crowded airplane followed by  attempts to navigate London's Heathrow Airport with two heavy suitcases is not a pleasurable start to any adventure. Once we met with the rest of the group we were taken to our dorm where we unpacked and walked around a bit to get to know the area. Everyone was really stressed because meeting a huge group of people when you're tired and hungry can be quite a challenge. We have no meal plan while we're here, so we have to buy food and cook for ourselves in the dorm kitchens. Well, lesson learned: if you don't make sure you get snacks and water, you'll be hungry and thirsty. First stop tomorrow: Three girls with whom I've become friendly and I are off to the neighborhood supermarket.
For now, off to bed to get enough sleep for tomorrow's scavenger hunt all over London!

Emily and I ready to take off from Boston!

Good morning London!
Double decker bus on it's way to London Bridge, driving on the wrong side of the road...now I believe I'm actually here!

My bed (don't you love it when you print out a ton of photos only to
find that your room does indeed have a bulletin board?!) And yes, I did bring my Disney stuff. Not ashamed... :)
