London

London, England

I’ve been to London at least 7 times and I have enjoyed every visit.  It’s a great city with lots to do and see. It’s expensive and I probably wouldn’t want to live there on a permanent basis.  But I will go to London every chance I get.

Here is where I like to go:

A side trip to Bath- this place is right out of a fairy tale

Harrods’ - especially on Boxing Day

High Tea- it’s hard to find a place that serves high tea.  But you must go to High Tea if you are in London.

Piccadilly Circus- there is always something exciting going on at this spot in the world.

Shakespeare and all his cronies

Speakers’ Corner- a lot of people have a lot of crazy ideas.

The British Museum.  I could spend days in here.  I know so many things here were stolen from other cultures. But you really get a sense of the whole of civilization here.

The Henley Regatta- bring a big, ass hat.

The grocery stores- They give out samples of beer.

The Pubs- try a pint of Bitter or Best Ales

The River Thames- take the boat cruise.

The Tate Gallery- this is a pleasant, manageable art gallery.

The Theatre District- There is lots of British theatre to see.

The Tube- Mind the Gap.

Wimbledon- these athletes make the game seem so easy.
