Well Ladies what a trip I had
where oh where do I begin
I guess at the
start may be good
...
But first I must say it's so so good to be home with all of my Family young
and old
Well as you know I left here on the 23rd Feb and headed off to Heathrow
Airport! Gosh the airport is massive
.
I guess I have not really lived
as when I entered terminal 5 of the
airport I checked in as you dothen I headed off for a cup of tea(that's the
Irish in me
)anyway I thought I had lots of time as the flight gate was
just right next to me through the door.So me being me I checked my
emails
then I
heard last and final call to Bangalore! so I off I headed through the gate
unbeknown to me when I went through the gate I then had to board a
shuttle bus plust 6 flights of sliding stairs then Ia lift to the proper gate
.Anyway I was the last person to board the plane and I felt so silly well
I went red really and put my head down
anyway....
The flight was 9 hours long I was fine as we flew hight above the clouds.I
said my prayers to Jesus asking him kindly to guide the plane.Then I blew
Louis and all our beloved children and loved ones kisses.My list was
endless
.Then my mind went off into it's own fairy story
with you all
sitting with me.It's so funny as I have only seen a photo of Sparrow but in
my mind I have seen photo's of you all...I will describe you all in another
post one day I promise
anyway...
I felt a bit funny on the flight and the long and short of it all I ended up
being moved to club class with oxygen.I guess it was a mixture of Louis's
dates,flying alone and going into the unknown.I am so much a home
person and when I step outside of my zone I feel so insecure anyway
sorry to ramble!!
I was fine but the airsteward made me think of Jude so much
he said'
Sandra could you please stop saying sorry
as you have no reason to say
it!!'Jude popped up bless her!
Well I prayed so much to Jesus and one stage they were talking about
diverting the plane if I felt any worse
.
I do pray but not really hard but then I prayed so so hard and I kind of
begged Jesus to make me feel ok.
No wonder my blood pressure dropped
anyway I ended up fine and in
club class stretched out like lady Muck
but fine so my prayers were
answered.
Sorry to ramble
I eventually landed and I was never so pleased to see
my boss waiting for me at the gates...
So we the heat hit me at 5am! it was like a furnace even at that time of
the morning.
The traffic was awful it really was as people start out to work so early
there and they work such long hours,even longer than me
.
Anyway my first impressions were of sorrow as I could see what looked
like make shift shacks along side of the roads.In fact they were homes
made with cardboard, wood and paper.I could see one little girl no older
than two standing there with such a blank expression on her face.I felt so
greedy in so many ways.We passed so many shacks and it made me
realise I should be so grateful for what I have as at times I guess so lost
in what I have lost instead of thinking just what I have!
I took some pictures of people as my eyes nealry popped out
look a man
lady and a tiny tot on one bike with not a helmet in sight!
