We arrive at the Heathrow Airport at 11:30 am. It was a long flight. The seats on the plane were not very comfortable and there wasn't very much room. Since we had an eight-hour layover in London, we decided to store our bags for the day and go outside the airport. We split into two groups; one group headed into London, while the other headed into a smaller town not far from the airport. David and I stayed with Sharon and Tim at the airport for awhile. (Sharon could not find her wallet and thought she had left it on the plane) Thankfully, her wallet was found and delivered to her at the information centre. Once the wallet was delivered to Sharon, we took the subway into a small town for lunch.
The team met back at the airport at 5 pm, collected our luggage, checked in, and boarded the plane. The plane was delayed in departing as there was an upset traveler on the plane. She was in obvious distress. As it turns out, she was being deported back to her country (the Congo). It was very apparent that she did not want to go back. She was yelling "they will kill me". It was very sad! They managed to settle her down and we were on our way to Nairobi, Kenya; leg two of our journey. We are that much closer to our final destination.
