We have now arrived safely in London, England with Shawn & Ang (Richard’s brother and his wife) and are enjoying the gift of hospitality my mother-in-law demonstrates oh so well! Richard’s dad is awaiting our arrival in Sierra Leone, and Richard’s youngest brother and his wife are currently en-route here from Scotland. This will be the first time the family has been together in over 2 years!
Us Wiebes must look like a rough bunch as our travels so far have included a lot of searching! My carry-on was searched & re-x-rayed, Ang was scanned & padded down, and when I received my checked suitcase at my final destination, I found my lock broken and a note saying my checked luggage had also been searched! I also have nice black grease mark on the outside of my new luggage to remember it by- how sweet.
Sleep in something we have not had much of at this point. Anyone who has tried to sleep in Economy knows how taunting that two inch recline is- just enough to remind you how much more space you might have had if you had bought one of those leather seats in the front of the plane!
Talking about sleep, there’s a lovely bed in front of me and I’m thinking about taking a nap before Kevin & Toni arrive from Scotland. I’ve closed my eyes, but I don’t believe I’ve slept for about 31 hours... (yawn)
