The First Flight

January 11th, 2010 Fr David & Andrew

Left Manchester an hour late due to the adverse weather conditions – it was the worst flight of my (Fr David’s) life & second worse for Andrew – and that apparently is saying something. So already we are running an hour late. Arrived at LHR T5 wow!!! Really smooth transfre though didn’t have time to  Read More »

There’s a lot to see in England, but we didn’t see anything.

January 5th, 2010 Daphne

After so many flights and trains, we were exhausted. We just didn’t even have enough energy to check out any sights at all. We walked for 4 blocks to get lunch and that was all we saw of London. Even though this was technically our official first year anniversary, we couldn’t even get enough energy  Read More »

Bowling, Curry, and Peep Shows

January 3rd, 2010 IUP Cook Honors College

Yesterday was a great day. Went down to City Airport Dentists to hang out for a few hours in the office. It was obvious that the office was publicly run, not at all like our suburban offices at home. Prices were so much different also. Monday I will be going back to do a more  Read More »

Party Time For The Jetlagged And Dehydrated

January 3rd, 2010 Jen24

Our trip began with a red-eye flight from Calgary to London, England. It went ok but the tons of sleep we planned on getting didn’t happen – too many good movies on board! We arrived in London, jumped on the tube and headed straight for our hotel in Kensington, which had 2 double beds and  Read More »

Wagamamma Love

January 3rd, 2010 Jen24

After a “glorious” 5 hours sleep, we had to get back to the airport to catch our flight to Delhi, India. We found a Wagamamma restaurant in the airport, so of course we pigged out. Wagamamma is an Asian fusion restaurant that’s decently priced for London that I have never failed to visit every time  Read More »
