Day 2: Arrive London

Saturday, May 25, 2002

Met Liz and Jen on the Internet. Liz introduced Mike. Jen didn't make it to the Hertz counter. We went to Stonehenge.

The inside of our rental car looked like a mini bus because it was so wide.

It's cold here.
I like stones. Liz was the most active looking for crop circles. Drove through countryside before arriving at Avebury.

The only place we really saw crop circles was on postcards.

Went to Windsor Castle, but didn't go in due to lack of time. Returned car to Avis after driving through bike path tunnel. (English signs were unclear as to where we were supposed to go.)

Okay, I'm not with Contiki yet.

Made it to the 6:00pm "disorientation" session. Saw a lot of people, but didn't know who was who, like it meant anything at the time.
Took the Underground for Piccadilly Circus for dinner, but trains stopped because of some body found on the tracks. Walked up long flight of stairs before refunding train tickets.

Went to pub for fish & chips. Pub was out of everything. Went somewhere else to dine.

Stayed at the Imperial Hotel.
