Tuesday, April 2nd at the London Heathrow Airport

We arrived at London Heathrow Airport after an eight-hour flight. We were in economy, which means no leg room, so when the person in front of you puts their seat back, it crushes your knees. Not very comfortable! It seemed to take forever and because of the time change, we arrived about 10:00 AM London time.

Luckily, Shannon fixed us up with American Airlines Ambassador Club/Admirals Club. It was at another terminal, but we got on the tram and went to find it. What a great place to spend 12 hours in the airport. They had private showers, which is basically a total bathroom with a toilet and sink as well as the shower. They also had recliners that fully reclined and a place that was quiet. There was all kinds of free foods and drinks. GREAT. We slept a little, showered, ate and relaxed. We are getting closer to Africa. I will write more tomorrow.
