A short visit to London - by plane or train

by Luchonda - last update: Feb 21, 2009

Triangle of many journey's-connecting the world

"The House"
I'm not yet that familiar with London - but the national airport Heathrow is a triangle between coming and going to South America - and the Asian Countries.
Safety regulations may be the toffest in Europe. I like to watch the soaps on TV about the internal life on this airport.
Last visit to London by the channel - december 2008 - another experience -a lovely Christmas shopping trip with my daughter
BTW - whenever taking some pictures in London where the sky is part of it -the chance is great that there is also a plane on it.
The Tower Bridge

The Tower Bridge

Next to topics like Buckingham - Piccadily Circus and actually since the Millenium change - London's eye, the Tower bridge and the Tower itself
still didn't loose any importance of touristic highlights.
We stayed at the Thistle Tower hotel - with a perfect view on the bridge - day and night.

London's eye trip and the local musea

Dali and his eye , all next to the most touristic place since the millenium change.
The exibition is based on the three major themes, influencing Dali's life and art, and maybe mine aswell :
-"Sensuality and Feminity"
-"Religion and Mythology"
-"Dreams and Fantasy"
Briefly said , my best friend told me during this London trip, early morning after having a large shower so that for me the cold water was the only thing to get clean :
"A man needs sensuality, dreams and fantasy ... Feminity needs a breakfast ... and god save the UK Queen - it was a quick BF - but we had a Cuban fantastic experience the day before - Cuba in London

Pros:"Impressive metropolitan city"
Cons:"In fact, none - London changed a lot"
In A Nutshell:"A place you have to learn to love"

 Thanks for visiting. Your London pages take me right back. I must get back there again to get some better photos.

 Thank you Luc for bringing back sweet memories about this city! You were so lucky to visit it with your daughter once again! Loved a dog in his box, haha!

 Cuba in London, Dali in London, I guess there is nothing you can't find there. I also went by EuroStar once -- must do so again sometime soon!
