Departure and Arrival

Well...I made it over here in one piece...almost! When I got to the baggage check at BWI they told me it was $165 for every checked bag over 2...I had 4!! So I decided to leave one behind, but that happened to be my bag full of shoes! I have 2 pair to last me until my mom can send them over. I will have to make due. So far I'm not off to a very cheap start...I'm out $165 and I have no shoes to show for it! 

In the meantime I managed to drag my 200 lbs. of luggage out of Heathrow and successfully made it to my friend Felicia's house in West London. The main thing I accomplished today was staving off the jet-lag and getting a cell phone!! 

Tomorrow I plan on venturing into the more major parts of the city. I want to check out the neighborhood I will be living in called Bow. I will probably pop by the school as well to see how things are going. 

I will be moving into my flat with 3 other roommates on Saturday so that will be fun to finally get settled somewhere. 

Going to bed for now...its 11:30 pm here and I'm trying to get my body adjusted. 

TTFN-
