Our first day of travel was uneventful, but jet-lag free. We attempted to get a quick bite at a pub that i remembered to be "right by the $75 tshirt shops" we walked up and down portobello road about five times before we found it. it wasnt as good as i imagined. After pub food we walked up and down oxford street looking for a selfridges (apparently a cool retail concept). we didnt find it. but, we did get rained on. so that was good. the evening ended with me forcing our friends, ben and thanda to stay out late with us. the result was thanda oversleeping the next day by what seemed like 2 hours.
i know nothing exciting has happened yet.
i will work really hard on getting arrested in croatia though.
coming up: guest blogging by our travel partners - heather and mere
