Ain't no party like a Boston Party

May 22nd: SFX-Gatwick-Boston

"Could you please remove your baseball hat and put it in the tray?" "I'm wearing a baseball hat?!?" I'm a mess :D 

Ugh, connecting flights suck, if no one gives you a heads up that you got a second security check and have to throw the overpriced bottle of water you just bought after the first security check into the bin during the second check. Otherwise, our stop at Gatwick was grand; all the ads for London sights, the Queen murals, Pret-A-Manger, Jack Wills, Boots, and Soap&Glory. Long live the Olde World. Brilliant thing actually, as I have missed London quite a bit these last couple months. Now this has been relieved a little as well. Also: really excited for Boston already.


Norwegian Air is bloody brilliant! The flight crew is extremely nice and went out of their way to accommodate  some of our wishes and there's this one steward who has cheekbones you could cut yourself on. Looking pretty sharp over there, despite the funny socks ;) Also the food...was amazing. Tasted real good and we got Belgian Chocolate Cake as a dessert. Plus, free coffee refills.


Also, we got the seats with the most leg space in da house (well, plane). Even if I'm slouching real bad, I can't reach the wall in front of me.


Okay, I can, with my tippy toes, but it's a stretch. Right now, I'm like an excited labrador retriever with a tennis ball in this plane with the entertainment centre and all. Only drawback: someone in the vicinity has smelly feet. :D 
3:22 hours to Boston. I'm so excited, and I just can't hide it! 

Boston Public Transport is incredibly funny, that is, if you're not tired out and totally fed up with travelling. ;) The carts seem like museum inventory and the stations are a mess compared to Berlin and London underground. On the other hand, it is supposedly the oldest of its kind, so...yeah. Interesting experience. And then we also ended up in a friggin' luxury hotel. I felt so out of place rolling into the lobby in my sweat pants :D
But yeah, we're here, tired, and prolly going to bed anytime soon. It looks pretty American over here. And the guy from room service just told me, I was wearing the wrong hat, it's the Boston RED Sox, the White Sox are from Chicago. Yeah, I know, but my other baseball hats are New York Yankees caps and that would be worse. He agreed :D
