touch down!

assalamualaikum...

after the flight delayed for 20 minutes, and what it seems like never ending flying hours (13 hours on board and bored..!!)

finally, we're in UK!!

ok this is in LCCT, before checking in the luggages..


 our flight took of around 10am in morning from Malaysia. the flight was arrange in a three column with 9 seats for every row.  i was seated next to a blonde lass with her father, while Gervanne and Joanne sat near to each   other. throughout the journey, the young girl was actively talking to her father in her British accent, which sublimely enters my mind while i slept. [ yeah right :') ] Later, I started to sound like them. a bit.

killing the boredom with psychology facts..

upon arrival at Gatwick Airport around 4pm in UK (that is 8 hours later from Malaysia), we quickly check in the UK border, with my backpack killing my spine and palpitation, worrying that we will face the same things that happen to our previous senior. (they were detained for almost 12 hours due to visa). turns out that the officer was nice, and we had no problem passing through!

YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!

then we collect our luggage and find our way to the tube that heads to Victoria station and directly to our final destination, King's Cross. however, the train were not available on weekend. ad so these three little creatures among those tall british people; with bags who weigh fit enough to make your spine suffer, had to take detour. the other option left is to go to London Bridge station from Gatswick Airport, find the tube that heads to King's Cross (it is in the northline!) and from King's Cross, take a bus to where we were staying right now.


'jet lag' face, it was already 1am in Malaysia around this time..I haven't slept much.

one thing that fascinate me about people in UK is their willingness to help others.at first we were being cautious not to let strangers took our bags, but it seem though they are not only offering the help to us, but also to local people in need. hmm, i guess, it's just their culture.


so to cut thing short, here we are, finally in our residential place, somewhere in Stoke Newington, UK. It's 2 am in UK now and my fingers are freezing. till then!
