That's a good way to enjoy the 77W but you haven't exactly discovered fire.
Well, an interruption of journey that lasts less than 24 hours is not a "stopover," which is what counts for APD purposes. But I think that the more general term "layover" can refer to an interruption of journey of any length, so it can mean either a connection
or a stopover.
