May 10- Here we are at Sawyer before going on our voyage. We were super excited for our month long journey! Chicago was a long layover for us (8 hours), and when we actually reached London it was 7 am! Big Ben/Parliament and Westminster Abbey was first on the list. The church was gorgeous, it held so must history and burial sites of royals and famous Brits. Some examples are Chaucer, Darwin, Newton and Livingstone. Unfortunately were weren't allowed to photograph the inside of the church. After that we headed to the Tower of London, and ending the tour with a relaxing breeze on the bridge. To beat the jet lag and long travels we receded to our rooms and fell asleep with no trouble. Some of our rooms had a wonderful view of the Sussex gardens out in front of our hotel.
I've had an eight hour layover. One day, but never eight hours on the first leg of a journey.
