I woke up, ate breakfast and finished light packing (small backpack for 17 days, 5kg, temperatures ranging from 0 to 30 degrees) before sister drove me to Brnik airport.

Outside it was snowing, 0 degrees, on our way there was heavy traffic. At airport I tried to enable packeg with roaming, but got stuck because I have two phone numbers. I couldn’t solve it before flight even I made call and sent mail. But prices for roaming in UK are not too expensive for EU countries. At security double check. I waited to board flight around  half an hour. On this 2.5 hours (10:30-11:50) flight some turobolance after take off, I got emergancy exit seat with extra leg space in middle, IPA 7€, early arrival 20 min. Long time since I was on easyjet flight, 45 €.

After landing at Gatwick it was time to move to city after all procedures. Because of bomb treath all transport was canceled. In the end I teamed with Italian girls and shared Uber, 40€ per person. On our way I chatted with driver about traffic and sports. He left as at Victoria station. In bar nearby I ordered ale for 7€ to regroup. I got WiFi access, tried to solve roaming again, made paper request and sent phot of it, but it didn’t help. I ate one homemade sandwich with Vienner schnitzel.

I took a walk around city’s main attractions after last visit 12 years ago (Harrod’s, Hyde park, Buckingham palace, Big Ben. From there I went to London Eye, 35 €. It was crowded but we had nice view at sunset (change hour to met with Rob).

From there I walk and took metro north to King’s Cross. I left my things at Macdonald Hotel (84€, 2*, shared bathrom) and went out again. Ate one more sandiwch.

At King’s Cross O’Neil’s I met Rob for a few drinks, round of IPA beers was almost 20 €. He was not in a rush so we could talk about many topics before he left. There was live music so I decided to stay there for few more drinks.
