I made it! I'm here! Despite flight delays and arriving close to 2 hours after we were originally scheduled to land, I made it safe and sound in the UK!
Today has been a lot of walking... seeing Big Ben:
eating fish and chips at a well established pub, Blackfriars:
And so much more from seeing Trafalgar Square and its many street performers, "mastering" the Underground and even eating pizza out at St. James Park in front of Buckingham Palace!
It's astounding when you stop and think about all of the history within these old historic buildings standing amongst all of these new architectural feats going up between them. London really does seem to be a city that takes pride in its past as it moves forward into the future.
As John Huff and I were going all over London, the Facebook group about our pilgrimage kept being updated by the other clergy that will be joining together in Salisbury. Today has been primarily getting to the country and sightseeing, the class portion of this Wesleyan Pilgrimage will begin tomorrow.
With all that we've done today, both of us are pretty wiped. I'm hoping to get a run in in the morning along the Thames River which means that I need to be getting more than 3 hours of sleep tonight if I'm actually going to pull that off! With that, I'm off to sleep!
