London 2016

- Adi had a Mononukleosis but he got healthy 2 weeks before departure so it looked like he could go with us 
- but week before our flight he got sick again so we knew he won't be able to go 
- I packed everything on Saturday 26.2. and left Jablonec with Hafik who slept over in our appartment again 
- we prepared everything, made a plan with Hafik and Marek and set up an alarm clock for getting up at 2:45 
- but there is a time-changer for summer time, so will there be any 2:45 ? 
- we have to be around 4:30 at the airport and it takes approx. an hour to get to the airport from my appartment 
- Time Paradox 
- of course there was no 2:45, next minute after 1:59 was 3:00 
- I expect that so I got up at 1:45 and got ready, then I woke-up Mára and Hafik 
- Hafik had to do some excercise on Duolingo in the morning 
- we had a breakfest and were so quick tgat we even caught up the bus we had planned in a first place 
- during the ride to the airpot I met my cousin Adam in the bus, who's going with us to Barcelona next month. What a coincidence :) 
- at the airport went everything ok except that I didn't know Great Britain is not in Schengen so I chose wrong Terminal at the airport (but we made everything in time 
- no problems with the flight, I even slept for a while 
- we got to the Luton little bit earlier, we found our Bus to the London center and waited 
- they left us waiting for maybe 25mins outside in the rain, because of traffic - which is nowadays usuall in this part of London 
- EasyBus took us into the downtown, directly to Baker Street 
- we visited the same Coffee shop I was in few years ago and still the best one in England 
- we let Hafik to order amd speak in English to practice...but what a coincidence...the waitress was from Czech republic 
- we had a coffee and made a plan, first of all we visited Sherlock Holmes' Baker Street 221B museum 
- then we bought All Day Oyster Card to the Underground and went to Westminster 
- London Eye, Big Ben and Hafik's photo woth Donkey from Shrek 
- then Downing street 10, say Hi to Dave Cameron mate, Buckingham palace to see Queen GrandMa and then Tower 
- there were several heavy rains attacks during the day, without any warning, but we survived every time 
- then Tower bridge and Tower, followed by Kings Cross Railway station to see the Platform 9 and 3/4 from Harry Potter 
- still after so many years, there were so many people waiting for Harry Potter so wevisited just shopp 
- then Victoria Couch station and back to Luton 
- during the day we got really familiar with the London Underground system.. it's not that difficult in the end, I must say 
- during waiting for our Bus, Mára found another girl from Czech republic who was working in London, she said it's definitéy worth working and living in London but only for few years... and it's pretty expensive 
- bus trip took almost 90mins, because of tge traffic jam, we arriced just on time...just to be told that our flight was due to bad weather condition canceled 
- we just need to stay and wait, WizzAir will pay for our dinner and over-night hoté stay 
- the waiting took almost 4 hours, many passangers got really angry but what could anyone do 
- Hafik met another 3 czech girls and got into conversation 
- we had to SUFFER the night in Holton hotel.. what a sacrifice.. but we came there around 2am, no dinner and at 5am getting up, because our Bus from Hotel is leaving at 6am
