Europe 2002: UK to USA

United Kingdom

London Heathrow to London Gatwick

After I arrived in London, I went to the wrong baggage claim terminal to pick up my luggage (the signs in London Heathrow are very confusing); so i went through customs and went to British Airways customer service to find out how I could get into the right baggage claim terminal. They told me that I could be escorted into the baggage claim terminal, no problem.

Europe 2002: Germany

Germany

Munich, Germany

After we finally got off the ground and flew to Munchen (Munich) Germany, British Airways got us to their safely, but they took so long to get process Milton's lost luggage request that (21/2 Hours), Barbara Laber and her family have been trying to get a hold of both Milton and I. They left a message with the information desk clerk, but we never got the message because the clerk's shift finished and he or she went home because it took so long for Milton and I to get out of customs.

United Kingdom

London Heathrow International Airport

Stranded at London Heathrow Airport

The trip to Munchen (Munich), Germany was hard, Milton and I got stuck in London Heathrow airport for about 30 hours. About one hour after we both arrived in London, it really started to snow very badly for about a hour or so. After that British Airways Canceled all of their flight s earlier in the day. British Airways tried to book us onto another BA flight to Munchen(Munich), but that got canceled. All of this time the the other airlines delayed, but did not cancel their flights I looked out of the terminal window and I saw other airline planes taking off to their destinations.

Sweden

Iron Age Mound, Stockholm, Sweden

Taby, Sweden

After that I flew to Sweden from Birmingham UK, this was the last uneventful flight that I would have flying British Airways. By the time I got into Sweden it was already dark, the sun rises at 9:00am and sets at 3:00pm, it was not raining but it is very cold, -19c the whole time I was there. But I was prepared for the weather this time, since I followed everybody's advice to dress as warm as possible.

London, UK

I flew out to London Heathrow on December 26, after a 5 hour delay in New York I finally made it to the UK, I had trouble getting out of the airport because of the post Christmas shopping season in the UK because of this my coach is late. After a 3 hour coach ride to Birmingham I am so relieved to finally be in Birmingham, which is a working class city 2 1/2 hours north west of London, Rover and Ford have large automobile factories there. Uncle Richard lives in one of the suburbs there called Rubery he even cooked at the small English Chinese food Restaurant called the Bamboo House, he show me around the suburbs of Birmingham UK.
