I Did it, My Way!

Saturday, 24 October 2009

I left you on the Airbus home from New York to Heathrow.

Return of the Red-Eye

Well, thanks to a combination of an uncomfortable seat and a 4 year old that alternated between high-pitched giggling and manic crying I got virtually no sleep at all on the plane.

My flight landed about 2 and a half hours late and after passport control and baggage pick-up my Mum met me at arrivals and whisked me back to stay with my folks for a few days.

The weather was drizzly and grey, I found being driven on the left weird but I do love the British accent. It's so quaint.

Home Comforts

Much as I've loved the USA, there have been a number of things I have missed. I've already satisfied some of those including a bar of Dairy Milk, good Cheddar Cheese, my Dad's tea and home cooked food.

In a very short time I'll be enjoying one of the other things I've really missed which is sleeping under a duvet.

I'll blog further when I am less jet-lagged.

Goodnight America, wherever you are.
