Travel day to London

Today I traveled to London to start the second leg of the Europe tour.

My flight was in the early afternoon, so I left around 9:30 by train to Schiphol. Luckily, I got to see Michael, who came back late last night from a bachelor weekend. We managed to spend at least one evening together before I head off for another two weeks.

The train was super crowded, and I tried wearing my compression socks for my foot injury — but sadly, they just made the pain worse.

At the airport, everything went pretty smoothly thanks to my flight status. Since I was flying to the UK, I had to go through the passport check side. I grabbed a really nice asparagus pasta in the lounge before boarding.

The flight to London was short — just about an hour. We had a bit of a delay disembarking, though, because someone got arrested on the plane.

I took the metro to Brixton and checked into the hotel, where I bumped into Maria. We made dinner plans for around six. I headed out to find some new underwear at M&S, but ended up shopping at TK Maxx instead (classic).

Maria and I had dinner at a lovely ramen place. We got into one of our deep, interesting conversations — like we often do — and it felt so good to be on the same wavelength tonight. Afterwards, we ended up in M&S Foodhall buying cake and cookies. We said our goodbyes and both took cozy solo baths in our rooms. I squeezed in a bit of rehearsal time and called Michael before heading to bed.Leggi altro
