Wewf traveling can be exhausting! Last night in the states went well with my friends Craig and Alex hitting the downtown scene the night before. I figured this could only help me sleep more on the plane and welcomed the exhaustion! My first plane ride went smoothly! I can’t say the same for the second ride or rather getting to the next plane. Because of a delay due to de-icing the plane I arrived to the Chicago airport RIGHT as I was suppose to board my next plane to Manchester! As luck would serve, I happened to be on the opposite side of the airport. Picture me running with all my bags across the airport… if I was the casual observer it probably would have been pretty funny!
The plane ride itself went alright. Slept for a good amount of the trip. American Airlines kept me well nourished! The movies were “Eat, Pray, Love” and one of the “Shrek” movies. No hang up on the airport in Manchester except for having no clue of what to do or where to go. Eventually I found my way to the train station and they dropped me off at Pickadilly (fairly certain that’s mis-spelled). After asking three different people where “Shudehill Interchange” was and still having no clue. I stopped into a hotel to call a cab sine I am phone-less! (Weird feeling!!!) Not only was I having trouble understanding where I was going but my huge duffle bag broke and I have having to carry all three!
Now I’m waiting at “Shudehill Interchange” awaiting my Megabus to pick me up. I am quite a bit early so I have a good hour and a half to de-stress and wait for my bus! J Then Kiri is picking me up at my stop in Newcastle and I am done traveling for the day. It is SOOO beautiful here! I’m so happy I made it here and get to experience everything!
Until next time!
