When I finally arrived in London after a 18hour trip from the US, I got in the cab and sat on the wrong side. The cab driver said, "are you driving?"

Tube

Funny story about the tube; I was adventuring off by myself in London, never a good idea. I have my suitcase, backpack, pillow, and blanket headed for the Royal London hotel where my tour started. I was walking to the Tube station when the handle of my bag broke, it wouldn't budge past about an inch. I ask some gentleman on the street if he could help me get it unstuck, after a strange look he tried but it was no use. I had to continue on my journey down the streets off London hunched over, walking slower then usual. I finally made it to the tube station after loosing my dignity and gaining about 1,000 strange looks. When I finally arrived at my stop for the hotel I saw that there was a stand outside selling suitcases! I bought one and contiued to walk towards the hotel. After awhile (1 block) I got tired of trying to pull my stupid suitcase and decided to unpack and repack my new suitcase right there in the middle of the streets of London! I left my broken suitcase on the sidewalk and continued towards my hotel. Later that day my mom told me that there had been a suitcase bomb found in Europe.. Hope it wasn't made from mine...

Big Ben!
