Day 1 London - Reigate

Being tourists at our starting point!
We have just finished our first day of walking!


We got the train up to London at 8.15 and started walking from Big Ben at 9.30! (after directing a few tourists to the Olympic stadium!)


After looking very British with our GB flags flying out of our rucksacks the whole journey and Jèan Piér- our international mascot- accompanying us, we got to our half way point in Sutton for a well deserved Nandos and then powered through to the end!


Power songs:
Green Day - American Idiot
No Doubt - Hey Baby
Montell Jordan - This is How We do it
Campfire Song - Princess Pat
And, of course, Eye of the Tiger


Bathroom breaks: 3 (got to be a record)


Mood of the day: Tired Happy :)


Now we are looking forward to some cold baths and.. Tomorrow!!


Emily, Jenny and Leanne! x
