I'm a traveler, not a tourist, so I like to putter around places I visit as opposed to having an agenda on things to see. Things I love - watching the Tower bridge open and close and walking across it a few times each way taking in the views, The Rock and Sole Plaice in Covent Garden (for fish and chips!), the Picadilly Circus area, Tea everywhere, Cadbury flake chocolate in my pockets, the Tube and all the stations, and best of all we loved the scary and spooky Jack-the-ripper walking tour.
My least favorite thing about England: the coffee...I could not find a good cup anywhere - and believe me I tried! I was happy when we made a day trip to Lille France!
Have a great trip. |
Normally we like to be travelers too, but we are going to be TOTAL tourists in Europe! I want to see all the sights I've always dreamed of!
My SIL said the coffee in England is HORRIBLE! They went to Starbucks every day!
I would love a Jack the ripper tour, how fun!
