I’m finally here! In London!!
I’m happy to report the weather is not bad. Not bad at all!
It looks like there’ve been some showers, but I made it from my tube station (Green Park) to my hotel on Half Moon Street very comfortably.
Well, “comfortably” considering I was hauling the world’s largest suitcase filled with 12 jars of honey (plus a complete bee suit and wellies!)
I was happily surprised not to have been given the third degree at Heathrow about my honey smuggling. They’re probably more used to it going out of the country than in…
I was determined to post my pithy observations of my flight over, including insightful observations of my fellow travelers. Alas, I spent most of my flight dead asleep with my mouth open, drooling.
Ah, well. I’ll probably adjust to the time change more easily.
Tonight I will take a leisurely stroll around the neighborhood and prepare myself physically and mentally for my tour of Fortnum’s bee hives tomorrow morning.
Did I mention I found a pair of jeans in Fortnum’s signature eau de nil color? I can’t wait for their reaction!

Well, I’m not sure what Fortnum’s signature eau de nil means, I could Google it but I’m afraid Google would tell me I’m a country bumpkin cowboy for not knowing but while you’re there could you tell us if there is any difference in the taste of their bee honey there?
Welcome to London!
What an awesome color those jeans are! Good on you for catching some z’s while in flight.
