Day 2
August 27, 2010
Heathrow Airport, London

WOW, what an adventure we have had already! We landed in London this
morning around 10:30, stowed our extra carry-on bags, traveled on the
Heathrow Express train downtown (15 minute ride).  And from there took
a Hop-on Hop-off bus tour of the city. That included a cruise up the
River Thames. We saw quite a bit of London and were entertained along
the way. Our group of eight managed to stay together for the most
part, except for one rather tense incident when only five of us
“hopped on,” then after convincing the driver to stop, only one person
“hopped off” .We reunited after running a few city block (in flip
flops and complete terror of never reconnecting!!!!) to catch the bus,
praying all the way that we would meet.

We are now checked in and have cleared security, waiting for another
overnight flight. We will land in Addis Ababa and then end our trip in
Lilongwe sometime tomorrow afternoon. Thank you, Lord, for keeping us
safe and guiding today. We pray for a good night rest and peace for
tomorrow.
