London
Our "Excellent" journey began in London with a two night stay to get us over the jet-lag. After an eight hour flight from Minneapolis to Heathrow, it took us damn near as long to get from the airport to the hotel by van (1 3/4 hours, so I'm exaggerating just a little.) I made the mistake of sitting with my back to the direction we were traveling and ended up a bit woozy by the time we got to the hotel. After meeting our program director at the hotel, we walked around and had lunch. I felt much better and made it to 10:30pm before crashing. Jet-lag always seems worse to me when traveling west to east. We stayed at the Tower Hotel, located at the base of the Tower Bridge, very nice hotel and location.
