I want to break up the long plane ride from Boston with a 2/3 day layover in London in each direction.
On the way we’ll probably want to do a bit of touristy stuff right in the city, mid May (a week before "THE" wedding), and on the way back, we’ll probably just want to relax. We've been to London, and know what we'd want to see there, but coming back, we’d just like to go to some picturesque town or even a London neighborhood, not too far from the airport, where we can just chill and recover from almost 3 weeks of intense sightseeing . A place where there are nice shops, restaurants, etc. Nothing rural or suburban though. We want to relax, but we don't want to be bored.
We’re thinking maybe Windsor, Oxford or even Greenwich.
Any other thoughts?
