Arriving in London

Arrived at Heathrow Airport in the early morning hours. Heathrow is quite an old, bland building - but love the ‘travelator’ which is very springy - almost feel like you are bouncing / floating down the hall.

After my first interesting experience with the rude and arrogant British Immigration officials, Brett met me at the arrivals hall. I was going to declare a large bottle of rum I had purchased for Brett, but there was no-one screening in Customs / Quarantine.

Getting to Brett’s place was an interesting experience - it took several different tube trains!!

In an attempt to overcome jet-lag, Brett and Therese took me for a tour around the main areas of London city - including West End and Piccadilly Circus.
