Okay, so we decided to go for one last drive. We drove around for a bit and then we went to see Big Ben and London Eye while it was dark - soooo beautiful 
Now we are about to sleep and I so wish we could sleep in tomorrow, but we have to be up crazy early! 

Goodnight 












 


Today was so cool! We took a drive up to Birmingham for the HelpHarryHelpOthers Charity Football Game called Celebrity Footy 4 Harry. We got to meet James & Oliver Phelps who play the Weasley twins in Harry Potter. We also saw Harry's mum who gave a quick speech. It was a really good day for a great cause. After the game, we drove around for a bit and we even drove by the Aston Villa Stadium to see that in person. I love being in England and this whole trip is fantastic - but I have to admit that I am exhausted! Mentally drained and my entire body just hurts. Going home tomorrow will be both sad and well met. I need rest - mentally and physically! 

Now we are just back at the hotel, watching tv and resting ♡

The night was rough! I was so seasick and every time I felt close to falling asleep the ferry was tilting so much I felt like I was falling out of bed. Survived though. Had breakfast and then we were there! England! 





Driving on the left side is pretty cool and I love it - however, doing it in a Danish car is something else! I kept feeling like oncoming traffic was gonna hit me. As soon as we got near London it started pouring down - yay for that! Cant visit England without English weather. I still felt sick after getting off the ferry and I felt like the ground was moving. It has stopped now though - only lasted a few hours. We are staying at Hotel Xanadu in Ealing and we found a great parking space nearby. Our room wasn't ready yet by the time we arrived, so we drove around a bit till it was. I probably took 4000 pictures today - and I can't share that many. Also found out I can't send that many in one email, so my sister will have to wait for the slideshow till we get back home. 




I love our hotel room! Seriously I could just move in and stay here forever. Loving the little tea station! And the best is so unbelievably comfortable, oh and the AC - don't even get me started! I am in heaven 

Right now we are gonna just rest for a bit, eat, and get settled. After that, we will drive around a bit more to see more of London. The only thing we really have planned on our trip for sure is Harry Potter Studio Tour and an HHHO Charity Football game in Birmingham. The rest of the time we will just see what happens 






This was in a picture frame out in the hallway by our room - old stamps! 
So creative and suits the hotel

London Baby! Morten and I are going to London - by ferry. Which is actually a good thing. We get to bring our own car and all the stuff we want. I got my own billow, my teddy dog and we went to Germany for sweets and soda to bring. The car is packed! Got really nervous just as we were about to go on the ferry because we needed to open windows which my OCD is not happy about. And then my worst fear would be if they needed to check our things - because once touches it is no longer OCD clean and I would freak! Another worry that we didn't think about till we got there is that I changed my name.. I legally changed my entire name but forgot to get a new passport - so the passport and tickets are in my old name. Good thing they didn't check up on it - but that would've seemed dodgy to have a different name on passport than in their database! 

The ferry ride will be overnight, so we are going to sleep through most of it hopefully. We got settled pretty quick in our tiny cabin and Morten is having the time of his life - I however am already feeling really seasick, so hopefully, I can sleep through it. We are gonna watch films till we fall asleep - starting with Frankenweenie and then probably Batman.

Goodnight ♡ See you tomorrow London!
