London: Too Much Fun

Anyone who cannot have a good time in London has GOT to have something seriously wrong with him. The city has nightlife, shopping, and (contrary to popular belief) many terrific restaurants. Whether you prefer high or low culture, you can find it here.

The River Thames

The Thames flows through London to the English Channel. This has long been one of Britain's main arteries of transportation. Now, it is used more for pleasure. Getting around London, the Thames is the main point of reference.

This river was once among the most polluted on earth. Now, the government and the people are trying to clean it up. Perhaps in time it will be able to support more aquatic life.
