My Summer Marathon Begins

My summer adventure has begun!
I am sitting in Heathrow Airport and waiting for my upcoming flight to NYC, which is in 8 hours from now.
How lame is that - I arrived in London at 7am, and the plan was to get a 24-hour transit visa and go out to see the city. Instead, upon arrival they told me they only give transit visas to those with a night layover, and unless you have to go sleep in a hotel overnight, they won't let you out to London without a valid UK visa.
On top of that, they served mushrooms for breakfast on the plane...MUSHROOMS!!! seriously?? come on, who eats mushrooms for breakfast?!
Do YOU eat mushrooms for breakfast???
Anyway, these British people owe me a good muffin basket now for spoiling my morning a bit)))
And the sandwiches here at the airport cost like 4 pounds!!! So you spend a fortune to get a lunch.
