Whiskey, the Red Onion, and the London semester story

Talk of whiskey and a bourbon party leads into a long story: a host's semester abroad in London through community college, where his future wife Amanda won the scholarship (he wrote both papers) and he paid $8,000 to go. They flew Mike and Jared out for a weekend; Mike's arm fell asleep for twelve hours off the plane. London highlights: the Red Onion restaurant's endless free hospitality, historic castles and cathedrals, and a rant about London's total lack of handicap accessibility versus America's excess -- down to handicap parking at Target.
