Arrival!!

Today I arrived in Norwich, England! I left Dallas, Texas at 5:30pm (11:30pm England time). The flight was great - even had an open seat beside me so I could stretch! Plus they had free food and drinks. We even landed early. Then I caught a train into London so that I could register with the General Medical Council so that I can work here. Dragging all my luggage through the train stations is quite interesting, considering they don't seem to have heard of elevators or escalators, so there is a lot of up and down flights of stairs with the 50lb suitcase. My arms are all bruised and scratched - looks like someone has been hitting me! One of the tube workers commented that I had a "copious" amount of luggage (funny way they put things!) Then I made my way through 3 more train transfers to get to Norwich. Chad, Julie and their 3 boys are still here until tomorrow morning, so it was good to see them before they leave. The weather today was perfect - in the 70s, sunny - very pleasant. The flat is located in a location where you can walk to many stores and locations. I haven't explored much, but did enjoy just getting out and walking. Tomorrow morning I get up early to catch a flight to Edinburgh and Scotland. I am a bit nervous about driving - I will be driving to the airport and then renting a car once I am there. I will let you know how it goes.
