London Calling

by tarced - last update: Jul 19, 2005

In front of Buckingham Palace
Going to London this time, I was crazy enough to take 16 teenagers with me. They loved London, even though they never got used to looking RIGHT before crossing the street! Fortunately, there were no major accidents. They fared much better on the tube and got quite comfortable with this form of transportation which we've always found to be quite convenient.

London is quite charming and the red double deckers and red phone booths add to it. One picture that every teenager had taken was of them in front of a double decker bus.

While they shopped, I enjoyed one of London's many parks. I tend to forget that I'm anywhere near a city when walking through them - I get the same feeling in Central Park in NYC.

London is an enjoyable city for travelers of all ages. It is a perfect beginning point for a novice traveler from the U.S. who wants to travel Europe and there is such a variety of things to do there that everyone (regardless of interests) can have a wonderful time.
