London, Baby!!!!!
We made it safe & sound – smooth flights, if you discount the power
shutting off on the plane right before take- off. Kids got some sleep, but were ready to go
once we landed. We had time at the airport
to freshen up before meeting the other groups, sending our luggage to the
hotel, and heading off into Center City via the Tube. Yep, introduced them to the Tube right away. We had about an hour to chill, eat, drink,
pee before heading for our Harry Potter tour!
We met our HP guide, and she immediately had us divide into houses. Most of us adults were Slytherin…no comments
;) She talked a lot about the books, the
movies, the stars, and then off we went. We saw the Millennium Bridge that the
Death Eaters blow up. We saw Diagon
Alley, and ended at Platform 9 ¾. All
along the way, we had trivia to score points for the House Cup Champions. Wasn’t looking good for the Slytherins…until
we found a Horcrux and won the whole thing!
Next up was dinner, a quick stop in Picadilly Circus, and then out to
our hotel…finally.
The weather was phenomenal today…mid 60s, little bit of a breeze.
Perfect!
Tomorrow we’re out to Bath & Stonehenge and the going to see Wicked
tomorrow night!
We should all sleep well tonight…6 miles of walking will tire a person
out!
Until the next post…
