How far did I travel this week?:

Just to get from Philadelphia to Oxford, I will have traveled 3,488 miles! That's not counting my previous flight from Pittsburgh to Philadelphia, or the drive from my house to the Pittsburgh Airport. I'm excited to make this long journey and hope it's over soon so I can start having adventures in the UK!

How far have I traveled on this journey so far?:

Since I've only traveled this far, my total miles for this journey are still 3,488 miles! 

How did I get around this week?:

One thing about traveling at international airports is that there's a lot of walking! Inside the airport, there are two different travel options to make the amount of walking a little less stressful. One of them is the moving walkways. These are essentially like an escalator, but instead of taking you up, they move you forward at a pace faster than walking speed so that you can relax and get to your destination faster. 

Another method of transportation is the trams that go back and forth between the terminals. These are similar to large golf carts that take passengers from one side of the airport to another so that they don't have to walk. This is a great option for the elderly or those who cannot walk long distances because it gets them where they need to go quickly and safely!
