I woke up in London with the WORST back pain, like barely walking type. Hobble hobble hobble.

Three hours in Heathrow Airport lines had me like

I hobbled to my seat on the plane for the 10-hour flight feeling pitiful. Thankful for music and movies and food!

I think exactly the moment we crossed into the US the pain subsided by 60%.

I’m just grateful it was the only back pain of the trip!

Anyway, I love traveling but I even more love being on US soil.
