DAY 2: Merry 'ol England

Sun, 28 August 2005

We’re bused to a local English inn called the “Bird in Hand” just outside the base. The long refueling layover has provided us with a unique opportunity – to enjoy the warm afternoon sun while drinking beer and getting some well-deserved down time. This is all so surreal, but I definitely savor the moment and order a pitcher of Guinness Stout and some fish-n-chips. After working my tail off for so many months, it was wonderful to pass the hours away drinking and having a jolly good time with my fellow group members. We then head for bed to prep for an early departure the next morning.

Local time: +7 hours ahead of California time
