Visiting London

Queen Victoria Monument
I have visited London more than I could ever count.
At first, it was a stop for me on my way further north of England to stay with an English family for the summers.......
Then in 1995 I started going to London and stay there for vacations.
On year 2003.....my best friend moved to London in order to finish her PHD......so now I have a good reason to visit it..(besides shopping)!!!!!!

This picture was taken on a sunny day.....though many people complain about the English weather,,coming from Saudi Arabia,,I find rainy, cloudy and windy days,,something to be happy about!

This year 2004,I got a chance to stay for whole 8 days with my kids.

 It is only expensive to take a london taxi when you are used to paying local taxi fares outside the capital where almost anyone can be come a cab driver. London is unique with up to four years training to become a famous london cabbie
