Heathrow Airport, waiting for next flight.

The short flight to Heathrow was uneventful.  We landed at the newish terminal (terminal 5) and had to catch a shuttle bus to terminal 3.  Fortunately our baggage had been checked through to Los Angeles from Amsterdam so we don't need to collect it and re-check it in.

We have a bit of a wait now until our next flight to Los Angeles.  We had a wander around the terminal shops but there is only so much wandering around or shopping that one can really do.  So we decided it was time to head towards the designated gate for our flight, wait and relax.

We are flying with American Airlines and on the way to the gate we had to go through security again even though we were in transit and had already been through security in Amsterdam.  Also there were various stops by American Airlines personnel asking security questions and re-checking tickets and passports. Security is certainly on high alert if heading to the USA or even via the USA.

I will do my next update when we get to Los Angeles.
