Second day in London

We had a very full day today, beginning with a bus tour of London (with a very entertaining guide) followed by a literary walking tour (with a boring guide), some free time, dinner, the National Gallery, and the London Eye at sundown. Then most folks went back to the hotel, bit a small group of us decided we wanted to get every possible moment out of the city, so we stayed and walled to a horror attraction, then took one of the last tubes of the night back home. I took copious notes through out the day, but we're just arriving at our hotel now, at 1:00 am, so, if you'll all forgive me, I'm going to bed. I'll have to catch up later.

  2. In talking with Alyssa it sounds like you had quite the adventure to get home. I'm so glad you guys are making the most of every moment there and thanks for the blog posts! Enjoy Stratford tomorrow.

  3. Hey Ben,

    Can you tell Anne that I got the money transfered to the booster account this morning. Hopefully things will go better for her. I'd try to fix her visa, but she left me incomplete information.

  4. Here's a thought. Maybe more attractive from this end than from yours.

    It would be great to have students add their thoughts and reflections to the post on this blog. Hey! It's not homework! Not even pass/fail. Just a chance to add a welcome voice to the discussion. Pretend it's a text to a friend. No need to hide the phone under the desk thinking the teacher doesn't see it. There are some students there who are excellent thinkers and writers!!!

  5. A good idea, but they don't have internet access. I'm across the street outside a pub stealing access. Maybe when we get home, though.

  6. Ben,
    Thanks for keeping all the families and friends informed on your travels thru Europe. Nice to keep in touch....
    I'm not sure if my son Ikaika has mentioned this to anyone (or possibly he's told EVERYONE!), but his big 18th Birthday is Sunday, June 21st. Can you wish Ikaika a Happy 18th Birthday from his Ohana?
    Mahalo!
    Keep the blogs coming....they are much appreciated.
