First Couple of Days in London!

We have made it across the pond safely! Sorry it has taken so long to post. We have been pretty busy getting housing and everything in line. We arrived in Gatwick at 6:30am Tuesday and pretty much hit the ground running. Apparently there was a pretty hefty tail wind. We left Atlanta 30 minutes late and arrived 30 minutes early. I think they said there was a 60mph tailwind. All in all we got there early, got our luggage and headed to the rental car counter. Let me say that it was really weird getting in the car on the "wrong" side of the car, let alone driving! Roundabouts were kinda hard getting used to, but we are getting the hang of it. The food is pretty good so far, but it's a little greasy at times.

We went into London on Wednesday night and had a great time. We walked around in the freezing weather and ended up eating dinner at this great little Greek restaurant.

We will post more details soon, but just wanted to let everyone know that we are here and are working hard. Chamee is trying to get over a stomach bug that's due to lack of sleep, different food, cold weather, etc... Hopefully a long night and some Tylenol PM will be the trick.

Cheers!
