Quick update

I only have about 10 minutes to write as we are about to leave the hotel. I will write about our trials of travel later, but suffice it to say that United Airlines is not on our top list right now. We lost 26 hours of tour time due to various problems and then they lost one of our bags!! We finally made it safely with everyone in tow and that is the most important thing. Very frantic day yesterday trying to catch up on the lost time, but we did it. Wow, did we walk alot yesterday!!! Saw the Churchill bunker and war room, 10 Downing Street, Trafalgar Square, Leicester Square, Covent Gardens, Picadilly Circus, St. Paul's Cathedral and the Tower of London. Some of the students did the Jack the Ripper tour after all that. Not this old guy. After a good night sleep in an actual bed, we are now ready to head out for a half day guided tour and then 6 hours of free time before we head out to Portsmouth tonight to catch the night ferry across the English Channel to Caen, France. Our time in London has been short, but we will have seen all the major sites before we leave today. Ciao

  1. Thank you, Dr. Fuchs for all you did to rearrange the schedule to get them all there and try to pack everything in so they didn't miss the London sites.
