4151 miles and 7.5 hours later, I finally got off the longest flight of my life. And the worst thought was that we flew from Minneapolis to Amsterdam, straight over England and then had to wait in the airport 3 hours before the hour flight back to England. We landed in Manchester around 11 a.m. Since we skipped over night, it was a long rest of the day. We took a train 1.75 hours to York, then prepared for the rain. Donning rainjackets, we put raincovers over our packs and umbrellas over our head and walked about 25 minutes to teh hostel. I think we all wondered what we could have left at home to make our packs weight less.
After dropping off our bags, we got a 2 hour walking tour of York-in the rain for the most part. York was once completely surrounded by a stone wall that still exists in many places so we got to walk along the wall and learn about the incredible history of the city. We are all exhausted and getting ready for bed. We look forward to tomorrw's adventure.
Hoping for sunshine and energy,
Emily
