Praha – made my way to the Czech Republic from Scotland to London all in one day. Only in Europe will something like this be possible. Left Edinburgh at the crazy hour of 6am to make it to King’s Cross St Pancras just before 10am so I could make it to Heathrow the required 2 hours before an international flight!
The flight was a short 1hr 40min – a flight this long will get you to Cape Town from Jo’burg! I had a window seat and a short way into the flight realised that – hang on – this is probably countries! I’m flying over! So so weird.
On take off – the best part of the flight – gathering the momentum and then taking to the skies and climibing – looked out the window and saw a river winding through a city and noticed the London Eye along it. It took a moment to come to the realisation that I was actually looking out over London. It looks so different from the sky. Oh, and add that it was a relatively clear day as well – certainly looked different! :p
