Second Day in London

 Dan - Hello all!  We are loving London, loving the food, loving the people.  To begin we got off to an amazing start, and all that hubub about London being a confusing city and hard to get around... well it's true.  In our quest to find a hostel, we had to turnabout a few times before we finally began to get the lay of the land and found our hostel, the "Bestplace" in paddington.  It's really sort of fun to walk around the streets of London and be welcomed by "Allo!" and "Cheers" along with a chuckle or two when we don't know how to respond.  The atmosphere has been for the most part welcoming, especially when the topic of the conversation turns to either beer or rugby.  And speaking of rugby, it's an interesting sport to try to figure out - as much as I can tell, the ball is kicked, and when someone gets ahold of it, they tackle and wrestle for it until it pops out of the pile and someone runs it down the field to the next pileup.  Looks like fun.  The hostel stay was nice, and the only worry I really had was if the bunk bed was to break - I had the pleasure of being on the bottom of three.  But until next time, I'll have a round for all you great fans! Cheers!

Josh- Hey everyone.  Danny here is sitting with me at this cafe where we have free wifi for an hour.  Which may end quite shortly because we have no way of knowing how long we've been on this thing.  Anyways, great times here in London.  The people are great and helpful, but they are reserved.  I like the food.  I thoroughly enjoyed walking through Hyde Park.  (No its not a baseball park, but a beautiful recreational park that includes Kensington Palace).  Tomorrow we plan to go to see Big Ben, the famous Tower Bridge, and of course Beckingham palace and watch the changing of the guard.  The beer on tap here is stronger and much better than Americas.  Hey I guess we're not great at everything:)  We're staying in London for a few more days and then we will head to Stonehenge.  All is well, and as the British say well, Cheers!
