Nice pages. Refreshing to find someone who's reviews are not all of the major attractions

Kew Garden tops my list for my second trip to London whenever that may be (not soon enough, I'm sure). The spirit was willing, but time was short in June. Would also like to pay my respects at the cemeteries.

I love that opening picture from the Prince Albert Memorial. I also like the photographs in your tips.

I'd love to have the gardens to nyself for just a few hours. It may be too late for the dodo but there is reason for hope.

It is a nice story about Europe but I wonder why Zeus would turn himself into a bull to swim rather than a whale or something aquatic. Sounds a bit phallic anyway, Europa goes off riding the bull!! Interesting cemetery info as well.
