Preparations

It's only 3 more days until I will go to LONDON with my advanced course English! Fortunately, the preparations - presentations of the most important sights we'll come across, talking about the strange habits of the 'natives', changing tons of Euros into a few Pounds Sterling or trying to get hold of weekly travelcards already here in Berlin ( many thanks again, Mrs Goschew! ) to save our most precious time in London for more enjoyable activities, have been done. Or so I hope.
What' different to former trips is the amount of money the course (or most of them) made during the last months: It's 33 Pounds Sterling each! Amazing, isn't it? So there's no excuse for not buying the teacher a lot of presents ...
The only thing troubling me at the moment is the simple fact that we're expected to be at the airport at 5.30 in the morning - conscious of who we are, fully dressed and everybody with his survival pack, including individual toothbrushes! But let's be positive - as we've been doing such trips for more than 10 years now, this one will work as well. What's even more promising is the friendly weather forecast as well as the fact that we won't need to go through Terminal 5 at Heathrow.
