Well my adventure has begun with a bang! I volunteered to get bumped to a different flight the following day at the San Fran airport because they were overbooked. But they rejected me because my flight was purchased with Frequent Flyer miles. So what did I get just for volunteering? Free upgrade to Business Class!!! Wow, that was one amazing flight...
I definitely should have planned the beginning of my trip better! It is Wimbledon and London is packed! This is a very expensive city, which I expected. It would have to pay quite a bit to stay here this weekend, so I'm not going to! I fly into Dublin, Ireland tomorrow afternoon and have two nights at a fairly cheap hostel booked for this weekend. I am looking forward to a pint of Guiness with both one of my sister's friends who lives in Dublin with her husband AND one of my high school buddies who's in town, haven't seen him in a long time.
This public transit system is pretty damn complex, though I am figuring it out. I will be back in London in a few weeks, so I definitely don't feel like I'm missing anything by taking off tomorrow. I don't really get jetlagged at all, took one nice shower and I am ready for the trip to begin! I am going to go explore London tonight, then get ready for a fantastic time in Dublin. The Guiness awaits....
