Early Morning (Jan & April 8)

Well, as promised, here it is! Today on April 8 we will begin our journey through the trip to Europe which began on January 8! Three busy months have gone by, so I'm glad we kept a written journal during our trip!

We woke up at 0320 to get to the Madison airport for the first flight. In Chicago, our flight to London was overbooked, so American Airlines was offering $700 vouchers per ticket to take the next flight 8 hours later! We were unable to accept because it would have been to close to catch our next flight from London to Ukriane, but $700 looked pretty good!

After the 7 hour flight, we sped through London Heathrow's customs and made it to the ticket counter at 1230am only to discover it did not open until 0445. So, we found a nook on the cold floor, and snuggled to stay warm for a 4 hour night of sleep! Jen slept well, but she sleeps well anywhere when she's tired!
