The trip went off perfectly. It was tricky to get around with trains, underground and buses, but Google Maps worked out really well. The girls enjoyed the tour with their high school. Ratna and I had no problem getting free tickets for all of their events. I enjoyed the sight seeing. There is a tremendous amount of history in the city and the museums are free and offer some of the finest collections in the world.
The accommodations were great and I really liked the Union Jack Club. I did not sample too much local fair, but I did really like the sandwiches at our hotel and I tried fish and chips at two different venues. I did enjoy English breakfast, but only took advantage of it once. The gym was pretty standard and a pleasant surprise. I did not attend any meetings. Several of them were video meetings and the one I did try to drop in on was not at the address listed.
