Monday, May 30

We arrived in London around 8:30 am with about a 12 hour layover. We made our way to the subway (Tube) to downtown London for a little sightseeing. We came out of the subway right at the Thames River across the street from the houses of Parliament and Big Ben. We walked over to Westminster Abbey for a tour, then across St. James park to the front of Buckingham Palace, then back to the subway station. After a brief stop for fish and chips at a London pub, we headed back to Heathrow for our flight to Johannesburg, South Africa (10 and a half hour flight).
