Riding Air GR

Hello! Or as the English say: hello.

We are currently sitting in the reclined leather seats of the spacious and tranquil (read: empty) environment of the Grand Rapids airport, preparing for a sojourn of epic proportions. We had a cruel moment of reality just after walking into the Gerald R. Ford airport... Our backpacks are obnoxiously heavy. For reference, see picture below.

But all is well, and we are extremely stoked for the journey that lies ahead. For reference, see picture below.

Our first stop will be the lovely city of Detroit. From there, we leave for London, England. Here is a checklist of the sites we plan to see there (feel free to comment with more suggestions as well!):
- Big Ben
- Hampton Palace
- All of the pubs. All of them.
- Buckingham Palace
- Westminster Abbey
- Shakespeare's Globe Theatre (we're seeing MacBeth on Wednesday!)
- National Gallery

We also want to visit Edinburgh, Scotland while were in the neighborhood as well... but we still need to research it.

Let us know what else you think we should see, and we'll let you know what dreams become reality! More pictures to come!
