the adventure begins …

Okay: not a lot of time here on the ground, so I’ll make this a quick photo-journal-project.  (With more & better commentary later?)

Jt & Bill in Chicago … Jt & Bill in London.  (Sorry: I forgot to snap a shot upon arrival in Nairobi for that really “not-so-fresh” look!  Trust us.)

With a 6 hour layover in London, Bill & I began w/aspirations of checking out the “newly acclaimed” terminal 5 at Heathrow’s Int’l Airport.  (Our terminal 4 was desperately wanting, with shops/restaurants under construction at every glance.)  When security wouldn’t allow us exploration on the “inside” … Bill and I determined to play hardball.  (Take this, you policy enforcers, you.)  Yes, we went awol …

And took our exploration outdoors via London’s tube … (we do have six hours, we kept saying to ourselves).

We saw Wellington’s Arch …

We stopped by Buckingham Palace …

We visited Parliament.  (“Look kids, Big Ben!”)  BUT did we make our flight to Nairobi … ?!
