Hampton Court on Day 1

I'm a day behind on posting this, but we did arrive yesterday morning at about 11am local time. We were able to easily get through customs very quickly. However, we did have a minor screwup when our coach couldn't get into the airport because of an accident on the roundabout. To make things worse, our tour guide didn't do a great job of helping us out on that one. We were quite glad that she was only with us to get the coach to us and then we were on our way.

Hampton Court was good. We started with a group picture so we wouldn't forget and got lunch. Fish and chips is always a safe choice. We had a couple of hours to browse around and enjoy learning about one of Henry VIII's place of residence.

We made it to the hotel by about 1730 and checked in without incident. We had the evening to ourselves and were able to just grab a bite to eat and an early bedtime. My sleep was absolutely fantastic.

Here's a set of images from Hampton Court:
