Fortunately, our garmin and the help of kind strangers we found our flat. We walked passed Parliment, Westminister Abbey and went to Trafalgar Square. Had dinner at Churchill's (Renae & I had fish and chips. The girls went with old standbys: Cheeseburgers, pizza, baked potatoes.
1st snafu of the the trip. The 6 universal voltage plugs aren't working. We're going to try to find a place tomorrow to recharge all of our electronics.
Lastly, pluses and minuses of our flight:
* We got earlier boarding because of Elizabeth's size - score!
* Renae got her and I south beach friendly (i.e., diabetic dinners) on the flight - score
* Free glass of wine with dinner - score
* My new Xoom tablet stopped working half way through the flight - foul!
* The stewardess told us we needed only one landing card per family; had to scramble to fill it out for everyone at the front of the line-foul
However, we're all very excited to be here. Now, Renae & are going to the little store next store to see if they have plugs or sim cards.
Till later,
Ben
