London, UK layover!

 

I was able to spend London on my way back home on a trip in the fall of 2024.  I had been to London a few times, but it was always a great experience. It felt a bit different without the Queen when I landed. I took the train from Gatwick to central London Picadilly tube station.

Here are some shots I took of typical London pubs which are on most corners:

After I got off the tube, I walked to London bridge which was neat to see again.  It is always a challenge to tourists in London as traffic flows the opposite direction.  You will see “look right” signs at cross walks and almost got hit my first time there.

I found a great hostel near the bus station that I was taking to Heathrow. I needed to leave early for the airport to catch my flight but made the most of it. An old friend was flying me home on her passes, I couldn’t mess up, or she would not fly my ass anywhere again.

Everything worked out awesome and the AA agent gave me a bulkhead seat with a ton of leg room.  That is something that never happens as I fly cheap ass discount airlines.
