The view from our hotel window shows that the area has lots of businesses and high-rise buildings, but just a block from our hotel is this wonderful neighborhood of flats and row houses that looks like something out of the 1700s.

Saturday, May 24
We arrived at our hotel in London pretty tired after not sleeping on the overnight flight and having to wait at the airport for 3 hours for transportation to the hotel. Consequently we didn’t do much today but explore around the hotel a little and find some dinner. The hotel is in a predominantly Middle Eastern neighborhood so lot of the dinner choices involved dishes we’d never heard of! Settled for delicious salads and sandwiches at a place called Patisserie across from the hotel. As the name indicates, there were wonderful-looking pastries that we will have to go back and investigate.
