London -- first day

After leaving bright and early Thursday morning (an eye-opening 4:30am) from Bainbridge College...


.....we checked our bags and passports in Atlanta  for a connecting flight to New York City-JFK International Airport). Bainbridge students going to London are Caprice Kelly, Meghan Vickers, Shaquera Moore, Danielle Richmond, Lillian Wingate, Sean Perry, Alex Casteel, and April DeRocco (along with Dr. Dave Nelson).


Arriving at JFK in early afternoon, we waited and ate till our 6:30pm flight (delayed till 8:30pm).

After the all-night flight, we landed at 7:30am (GMT) where the students breezed through customs and officially became legal aliens in the United Kingdom. We took a bus tour form the airport through London to our rooms at University College of London (UCL). Today's activities included an orientation, a quick walk of the area, checking into out rooms, lunch and dinner at the college, and mostly simply trying to stay up till evening.
