Trip to Heathrow


The flight from Boston to Heathrow was really good. I didn't sleep at all, but Virgin Atlantic had on demand movies and TV, so I was able to keep myself entertained. It was weird though - I landed around 7:00am London time, and the sun wasn't out. It was pitch black.

Once we got off the plane, we had to go through customs, which was my first experience with a British queue (see picture - I later noticed the sign that said no photography was allowed). It took forever to get through, get our bags, and walk the 20 minutes to the bus terminal. But finally we got on the coach to Oxford.
