United Kingdom

I left Myknonos yesterday afternoon on a highspeed ferry to the mainland then caught an overcrowded bus to the airport and a plane to London. I still claim that Heathrow is the worst airport ever but thats me.
The Underground to Russell Square, I am really starting to get the hang of their public transport system. At Russell Square station I bumped into a group of girls that I had met at Mykonos and are just about to start there tour of Europe.
Checked into a hotel (£62 cries... $150AU) and slept.

New day and time to find a place to stay long term... no bloody hotels.

London is both beautiful and madding. On one side you have old city with history and style. On the other side you have an old city which was built for horse's and monarchs.
I had a room mate last night a guy from Perth, Tim. We had some beer's, eats some food, watched some live soccer at a pub near here. He left for his tour this morning.
Today I when and had a look around London, on a tour bus system thing. I went around the city and visited the Tower of London, Buckingham Palace, London Bridge, Trafalgar Square. Here are a section of the pictures I took.

London Pictures.

Tonight is my brief meeting for the tour to Athens tomorrow should be good.

Well I am in the United Kingdom and it was a long and fatiguing. After a delay with taking off from Singapore, I was on my way. The flight itself was good and I had a much better seat this time, window and all (there will be pictures when I get a chance). I didn't get much sleep as the seat when I tried to sleep gave my neck all manner of pain. But I did watch 3 movies and read the book work gave me (an interesting read).
After landing it was check in and customs. I must say one thing here in the negative, Heathrow sucks. A rat warren of corridors and poor signage. Anyway once I got onto the Underground 'tube' and to Russell Court or something like that. Got lost getting to the hotel. Up to my room and slept a good 12 hours and still got up at 8 o'clock the next morning.
Had a wander around the area (and got lost agian). Its a beautiful city, in its old buildings with amazing archecture that you just don't see anymore. A note that need to be made; streets only seem to go one way.
