Right, I’ve
had all my lectures, sort of unpacked, and I’m now on a three hour train
journey to go home for the weekend, so I figured this would be a good time for
a catch up! I’m going to tell you all about our amazing trip to America, and I’m
going to do several blogs over a few days so that I don’t bombard you with
information! Enjoy!
Saturday was
the day that we left for America, so we left our house at 2:30am and walked
past all the drunken students on their night out in the local clubs! We left at 3am, and
it only took us around 3 hours to get to the airport, which meant that we got to
check in straight away and through to security.
By 10:30am
we were all on the plane, and the best part of the flight was at around 3pm
when we flew over Greenland! The views were spectacular – there were countless
ice sheets, snowy mountains and blocks of ice floating in water. North Dakota
did its best to compete against Greenland, at 8:30pm, with lovely snowy views
as far as you could see.

We landed at
Los Angeles Airport at 10:30pm or 2:30pm local time and an hour and a half
later we were through security and baggage collection. By 4:30pm we were at Los
Angeles Travelodge and soon after, most of us decided to go visit Santa Monica,
where the views were really cool – a great way to start off the trip!
