We're here... and exhausted

Preface: this keyboard I'm using is European, so the keys are seriously scrambled... make these words make sense.

Breaking this into 2 pieces.

Flight here: we were a little rushed since we didn't get to the airport until 4 and our flight was at 5:15, but luckily made it through the airport to our terminal (E-05, seriously, that's like Birmingham) in 25 minutes. I have NO idea how. And that includes LW's shoes getting scanned for residue. I was a perfect little security sheep.

Actual flight was chocked full of kids (MEH!) and had so much turbulance, our meal was delayed hours. I was well in to "princess mode" by the time my cold bread and valiant attempt at a ceasar salad graced my tray table. BUT. BUT. There was an empty seat next to me. God may taketh away and but he also giveth.

OK-- in London. Got here at the charming hour of 6:30 am (London is 5 hours ahead). Cruised through customs and we were off. Walking, with a 30+ lb. pack all day. I'm exhausted. Here's the laundry list of everything we saw, once we finished circling Victoria Station :

• Buckingham Palace
• St. James Park
• Big Ben
• Parliment
• The Eye
• The Globe (rebuilt, obvs)
• London Tower--actually went in this one and saw the Crown Jewels and did a tour of the chapel. Very neat!
• St. Paul's Cathedral

Now, we're at the charming airport, Luton. It's about an hour outside of London via the train.

Fish & chips for lunch and a beer. (Can someone talk w/ Cypress about getting "Honeydew Original" on tap. Derek!)

Personal note: DJ- I *think* I found what my treasure hunt was sending me for. Can you confirm w/ Brandon that it was a mermaid statue?

Super rushed now-- maybe when we get to our hotel in Budapest more... maybe not. This gal's tired.
