    Getting TO/AROUND: London has one of the least intimidating public transportation systems I've ever used! You can get anywhere quickly and easily. We used daily travel cards rather than a carnet as we moved around quite a bit. For one day (Zone 1) for the both of us it was 3.60 GBP.....weekends and holidays it was 2.80 GBP. This also includes buses in ALL zones!

    Getting TO/AROUND: There are maps at every bus stop in London. You can find out what buses stop and where they are going.....and all the stops along the way. If you buy a daily travel card, buses are included in ANY zone. Very easy to get around and VERY crowded at rush hour! Every child wants to ride on a double decker!

    Getting TO/AROUND: From Gatwick you can hop on the Express to Victoria station. It leaves every 15 minutes and gets you there in 30 minutes.

     But like don't they have an alternative to the Wahoo, like a big letter C or something? Even the Orioles have an alternative to their stupid bird hats. Wahoo would look worse pink, that's true.
