Nov 11 Wed - Prague, Czech Republic to London, UK

All the sidewalks are like this ... wow

Not much to report today, I was feeling lousy so stayed in bed til almost noon, then got out for a few hours get something to eat and snap some pics was very dissapointed that Prague was so totally overrun with tourists turned me off, yes all the buildings and everything is beautiful, can't believe the sidewalks even... lol but I did find a good hot bowl of chicken soup and a sandwich then went laid down a couple hours before the big grind of a trip....get a Bolt to the airport about 7 for the 9:30 flight to London.

Now I'm on the way to London where we get in about 1030pm, luckily when I checked in for my British Airways flight they asked if I wanted to check my bag all the way to DFW and yes I do ! I had hoped for this and packed a set of underwear and socks and my shaver and toothbrush and toothpaste in my knapsack so…

Now, when I get to Heathrow I can just run out get a uber straight to the Marriott Courtyard there outside the airport a mile or so, and get a shower and get to bed ! Wake up call will be about 430 they say be there by 5 allow 3 hours for it that’s the busy time now this makes no sense at all you look online and the brag about their new security system they put in which 97% of passengers have a 5 minutes or less time to clear security, except for Terminal 3 the International terminal between 6 and 8am but still they say times average 20 minutes and could go up to 25 minutes…. S

o…. Why should I be there 3 hours early when I could sleep another hour? Get there at 6 and still have 2+ hours to get through the lines? And I mean it is Thursday and vacation season is over with… well we will see I may fudge it an half hour get up at 5 get there by 615 still 2 hours early now that I don’t have a bag to check it’s just me and my knapsack and I’ve already completed the online authorization to leave the UK and enter the US.
