Almost can't believe it, I'm going to London within a hour! Woot!

Almost can't believe it, I'm going to London within a hour! Woot!

I woke up...Uhm actually I didn't woke up, or did I? I can't remember, what I do remember is that it was a afwul night with not enough sleep. Several things kept me awake, the tv from the neighbor, fireworks, a storm, (oh my) tossin and turnin, sweating and the suddenly upcomming hip pain. I knew already that it wouldn't be easy to fall asleep, I went to bed at 9:30, way to early I guess. Hope I will get trough this day, I guess I will, cause I had it before those sleepless nights before a trip. (Canada) 

Anyway, everything is ready, everything is packed. Am I ready? Yes! Just a little bit worried about the money, I should have exchanged some Euro's into English pounds before I go to London, I will have to ask the travelguide. And stop thinking the worse, lol, I always end up thinking the worst scenarios. Within a hour and fifteen minutes I will be off, there's still a storm but it's dry, no rain. Alright, I'm closing this post and will be back in five days. And.....

...I wish you all a blessed New year with lots of love and kindness, Happy New Year to all my online friends!! Byeeeeeee's! 

"I'm ready, are we there yet?"

"I'm ready, are we there yet?" 

I woke up early today, I saw 2:00 am on the clock, 4:30 am and 5:45 am, then I got up slowly. I have been practizing with my alarm clock on my cellphone since Monday morning and with succes, All for not waking up to late on Friday morning, lol, I want to get up at 4:00 am, then I will leave the house walking at 5:15 am, then I will arrive around 5:45 at the train station and hopefully the bus will be there at 6:00 am. Hopefully? Yeah, I can be such a nervous wreck sometimes, what if this or what if that, LOL! Sure the bus will show up!

I'm ready actually, well almost then, let's say I have everything ready. I packed my bags and put everything ready for tomorrow, I decided not to take my suitcase with me, just a traveling bag (see picture)  and a shoulder bag. Everything fitted in the travel bag, I'm happy that all of the stuff what I wanted to take with me fitted in the bag, it's only for five days, so. Now I don't have to drag the suitcase with me in the early morning, and that's a relief. I went trough the traveling papers again this morning, and saw that I might have to pay entrance for the tourist atractions, I'm not sure though. 

For example the Golden Eye is a 18 Pounds per person entrance and the Tower Bridge is 7, 50 Pound per person, ect. Now I don't have any pounds on me while I'm on my way, only my bank card. With my bankcard I can get English pounds, that's no problem. Question is, Do I have to have the English pounds already on me before I arrive in London or can I just use the card for the atractions? The ammount of money is not that a problem but the 'using of' is. And so I have a few more questions, but, oh well, It's not that a problem, I'm sure someone will help me out, and for the same reason I just can use my bankcard. Or maybe at customs I can change some Euro's into Pounds. 

I guess it's the usual nerves before the trip, and ofcource it's my first excursion trip ever, and for sure not my last. Do you know the feeling when you have everything ready and everything is packed, then you think, "Didn't I forget this or that?" or, "Am I sure I have everything with me?" LOL. I just don't have much with me, I have my clothing, electric razor, toothbrush, medicine, documents, passport, ect, I'm sure it's all there what I need for the following five days. Do I? I will have one more check before I go to bed tonight, lol. I won't be writing in my blog for five days, I'm taking a short vacation from my blog. Though just before I leave I will write a little post... Eeeek!
