So, we had an unplanned stay in London. The first night was compliments of American Airlines because the NYC flight left so late that we missed our connections in Heathrow for Lagos. That gave us a full day of sightseeing in London -- brrrrrr cold but grand!
The second night was compliments of Virgin Atlantic because the flight was delayed 12+ hours due to plane problems.
When we went through immigration for the first unplanned overnight, we explained to the officer that we'd just be in London one night due to the missed flight to Lagos. This guy who works with hundreds of flights each day, flights that are heading to all points on the globe, said, "Oh, you missed the 10:20 p.m. flight to Lagos on VA?" I said, "Yes; I'm impressed! How could you have all of the flights memorized!?" To which he replied, "Oh, I just know that flight well because we use it regularly to deport Nigerians!"
Can't get photos to load, even just one; have tried for a couple of hours. Will try again, later!
