So I think I forgot to mention I buggered off to England...

...but I did. Landed about 10 hours ago in Gatwick, and after the hour and a half wait to get out of customs...I am very happy to be here.

Things I have learned so far:
  • Air Transat are a bunch of tools
  • Air Transat seats are so small even I have a hard time fitting in them
  • When you book exit row with Air Transat, expect to not be anywhere near the exit row
  • Just stick with Air Canada or something. The money we saved was so not worth it.
  • It's really trippy watching people driving on the other side of the row
  • Brits fucking love station wagons. It's 80% of whats on the road
  • British bus drivers are fucking god
  • England needs bigger, less windy roads. Or smaller busses
  • Brits play chicken with busses. It's terrifying
  • British food is fucking high quality. For the same price as a meal at Jack Astors you can eat like a goddamn king.
  • Outside of the major cities (we're staying in a village an hour off the fringe of London) England is a gorgeous country
  • Pictures of this trip will definitely exist. I have my old Canon back for the next two weeks.
  • Dairy Milk is like...a buck fifty after conversion. HELLO HAPPY PLACE
Anyway I am going to go to bed now. It's 8 here, and I didn't get a wink of sleep on last night's flight (due to itty bitty seat and somehow ending up in the middle of a row of 3 when we booked a two seat row). If anyone wants...stuff! I have about 15 pounds of wiggle room with my luggage! Let me know. I'll be checking my email/LJ/Twitter regularly.
