Wrestlemania Holiday Day 1 Continued...

Well...we're officially over in the States.

After sinking a few too many pints in the hotel in London and going to bed way too late for our 4am wake-up time, I emerged from bed ten minutes before the taxi to Heathrow was due. Suffering from a tasty hangover, we all went to Heathrow and Lawlor, Katie, Scott and Ashley all checked in and went on their merry way on a connecting-flight trip to Houston with what was meant to be a short stopover in Chicago which went completely tits up when they had a delay on the first flight.

Myself and Euan tucked into a Wetherspoons breakfast because, as everyone knows, they're the best hangover cures in the entire world!

Onto the Continental flight CO33, and sat near the emergency exit for the extra leg room and we noticed that the stewardesses were all sour-faced...not that I cared as I unclipped the TV after takeoff and dived straight into watching Quantum Of Solace, The Day The Earth Stood Still, High School Musical 3 and finally about 80% of Clerks before our 10hr flight touched down in the good ol' U.S of A.

We then found out that Lawlor and his party weren't making it to Houston for about another 4 hours so me and Euan jumped in the taxi and headed for the Hilton in the Medical Centre region.

My room was lovely...but the room Euan, Lawlor and Ash are sharing is bloody gorgeous. Living room area, big bedroom, two bathrooms...lucky buggers!

Tucked into a healthy meal of Mushroom & Swiss Cheese Steak Burger at Burger King...they have to release these over in England! GORGEOUS!

Lawlor and everyone finally arrived later.

I went to bed about 9pm because I was totally shagged out.

Already missing Charlotte so much but we've texted a few times so it's all good and it'll only be a week until i'm back.

Woke up this morning, watched a tonne of American Breakfast TV which was all about Obama in London and then went to Burger King for breakfast...I think there could be a common BK theme running through this holiday at this rate!

Just in the Business Centre in the hotel now. Gonna be going to NASA real soon...ooooh, I like you schpaceships (that one is for Charlotte x)

See you all on the blog tomorrow
