Leaving for London in T-minus 8 hours. I can't remember if I mentioned this in an earlier post, but the tickets cost 22 euro round-trip. Yes, that is awesome.
What's not awesome is the fact that we have to catch a tram to Baden-Baden at 5:30 p.m. Germany seems to have a thing for saying that an airport is in one city (in this case, Karlsruhe-Baden Airport) when it is really about an hour away in another city (Baden-Baden). Luckily, the Karlsruhe tramlines go to Baden-Baden, so it's free since the wonderful city of Karlsruhe gave me a one semester KVV tram pass.
We're staying in the Journeys London Bridge hostel for three nights and London Stansted Airport the fourth night. The pub in our hostel was actually in a couple of Guy Ritchie films, Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels and Snatch. I've only seen the former (watched it last night), but we'll see how closely the pub looks to as it did in 1998.
We plan to do the usual tourist-y things in London like visit Parliament and Big Ben, but for the most part, we don't have things planned. We'll see how it turns out.
I'm not taking my computer with me, so chances are that I won't update until Tuesday or so.
Until then, Alles Gute.
