London is Life

by spgood301 - last update: Dec 19, 2006

Big Ben, as the clock strikes 4
My first glimpse of London was coming out of the Euston train station. I looked out on the streets from my cab, out the window, and thought "wow, I'm here". It's the place I always wanted to see-and, lucky me, there I was.

That was in the summer of '99, and I knew that one day I'd come back. So, six years later, back to London I came...a little colder since I visited in December, but it's still London. All the great symbols of London were still there to greet me: Big Ben, Picadilly Circus, Parliament. The sights, the sounds, the atmosphere - all still there, exactly as I remember them. It was great to be back.

London has anything you want in life: history, fun, entertainment, great food, and amazing ethnic diversity. There's something magical about being there. I hope my pages inspire you to visit one day...and for me to return there.
St. Paul's Cathedral, London
London has great monuments, historic churches...
...and sometimes some great VT friends come see you there.

What a great night we had together, with a memorable walk in the late night London rain to top it off. June, you always make me smile. :-)
