In London...safe and (almost) sound

Hi Everyone,

Sleeping in the upright position is never that easy....legs are too long, people too close, bathroom requirements by the people sitting near the window...it all conspires to ensure you arrive in London feeling a bit on the tired side. Usually our 'pick me up' is a quick jump onto the Tube into downtown London to go and visit the queen (or at least where she stays...some of the time). Unfortunately, we arrived a bit late and the customs line was way too long so, for the first time, our team is spending the next 8 hours in the Airport.

Terminal 5 was just built and opened last year....it's pretty fancy...just not made for hot weather....seems our British friends did not plan for that....so we sit here steaming and waiting.

The flight over was generally uneventful. Tragically, the July movies were not uploaded onto the plane so we were forced to choose from June's movies which were clearly second grade....It was quite hard...ohhh the sacrifices we make.

One of our team members hasn't been feeling too well on the flight over so we would appreciate your prayers for a healthy recovery. Otherwise....all is well.

Better go...we have go, sit and wait.

  1. Can't believe you weren't able to get out of the airport in London! What a long journey you're on!! Bet you'll all be so glad to get off that plane in Entebbe!

    Praying for you and hoping you're all still liking each other!

  2. We wonder how exhausted you must be today and are praying you will all get some deep sleep tonight. Also, praying for Beckham at home.
