Flight to London!

Becky - Well we were pretty messed on our first flight - actually, the whole flight was totally fine - we just both got sick at the VERY end...like the last 5 minutes of the flight to London. Mike beelined for the bathroom as soon as the plane stopped. I was still fine...maybe it was sympathy pains, but after a minute of him being gone I started to feel sick - so I got up and threw up everything I'd eaten over the past couple hours...sick.
Great story though - AWESOME story actually - as I was sitting there alone - everyone filing off the plane, and Mike in the bathroom, when I started feeling sick I got up to head to the washroom, leaving Mike's sweater and both of our ipod headphones on his seat...and at the last second I grabbed his money belt that he'd taken off, thinking "oh y'know, just in case". You usually leave your stuff on the seat when you use the washrooms on a plane, right?? No big deal! Well we come back from the bathrooms - and his hoodie and our earbuds had all been stolen! We checked with the plane security for almost an hour after to see if the attendants had taken them and turned them in, but no luck. It was a HUGE God thing that I grabbed the money belt at the last second. It had all of our American money (enough to pay over a month of rent here), BOTH our passports, and Mike's VISA, debit, international driver's license, ID, everything basically. The only reason he'd taken it off was because his stomach was upset and that's what it was strapped around. I hid it under the hoodie when he left, but then just thought at the last moment that I should take it anyway, even though I was scared I would drop it down the toilet...so it's a good thing, because it would have been taken along with the hoodie since it was all taken. That's our already exciting story I guess!
So Mike's friend Rob picks us up from the airport in London, it's freeeezing outside and now Mike only has his t-shirt on....anyways the plan was to have lunch with Rob's housemates and family at their house - then he was going to take us around London - but we were so sick he was pulling the car over so we could throw up....and we passed out in his parent's bed...when we weren't taking turns throwing up in his toilet....hhahah oh gosh. Then he took us back to the airport - where we both threw up in a bag he had in his car. We passed it back and forth...front seat to back....poor Rob. He was so nice and understanding though. He gave Mike a navy hoodie jacket actually - to keep him warm! So nice of him!! Haha...and he gave us different malaria pills that we might try....supposed to be less nausea-inducing. Which may have been a large part of our problem...we'd taken our weekly dosage that day and the pills over the last couple weeks have been making us pretty dizzy and nauseous.
Alright well I think I've given you enough mental images to last you for a while! Sorry about that!
Our good friend Rob and his wonderful family was such a blessing, so accommodating and hospitable, and we appreciated it so much, especially in our state! Rob you basically saved our lives!
And from what we saw of London from the car and house that day, it was beautiful! Hehe!
