So before we talk about London, a quick extension on Brugge. Overall really nice. The last day we just spent walking around and seeing more small city sites. We finally found a fresh made Belguim waffle...with whip cream and all sorts of goodies on it:) We climbed the Belfry tower, it was just like the movie, 366 stairs and very narrow. Don't reccommend it to the clinically obese.
Thursday we figured our how we were going to get to London. We ended up finding an overnight bus that left from Ghent at 11:45pm and arrived in London at about 5am. It sounded like a great idea because we were told we could just fall asleep in the bus then wake up in London. So we decided to make a night out of it and took some tylenol pm...washed it down with some wine, and boarded the bus ready to crash for a few hours. About an hour and a half into it they woke us up to pass through British customs where they proceeded to ask us MANY questions we were not quite in condition to answer. We were still asleep and didnt have many answers for them. At the time we didnt know exactly who we were staying with and how we were leaving the country, which they werent happy about, but we knew our own names and where we came from and our state bird so they let us through.
We have A LOT more to post but our time is limited at the internet cafe (been the story lately) We will catch up all the way when we get to france either friday or saturday at the latest. We put up pictures on facebook as well. A lot of them need explanations but that is a little down on the priority list as well...we will get back to ya.
Ok also here are the links that should work if you do not have facebook- just heard about this way so check it out!
