In Love with London

On my first trip to London I did the traditional sightseeing that most yanks do when they travel over the pond.  I went to see the Changing of the Guard, visited the Tower of London to see the Crown Jewels. Then I wandered through the streets down to St. Paul's Cathedral and after a quick visit walked over to Piccadilly Circus. I walked through Hyde Park and walked by the Royal Albert Hall and on to the Natural History Museum. I ended the trip with a trip to the Imperial War Museum - which as a woman - was not high on my list, but it was quite impressive. I enjoyed it more than the Natural History Museum.

Since then I have branched out a bit and explored the famous Notting Hill, Little Venice and Hampstead.

On my next trip to London - I plan on visiting in December to see the Christmas lights and all the holiday decorations.My first start is going to be the Kew Gardens (Kew Gardens tube stop). Its beauty awaits me. I plan on strolling, through the gardens and stopping for lunch at The Orangery. I have heard rumors that there are amazing tarts made from a secret recipe dating from the time of King Henry VIII at a lovely little place called the Maid of Honour Tea Room.  Walking is going to be a big part of my next trip so I have a walk planned  along the Thames. I just have to find Strand-on-the-Green (Gunnersbury or Kew Gardens tube stop). It's a sheltered tree-lined path with quaint houses along one side, the river on the other.Sounds like the perfect photo opportunity to me!

The next day I am going to walk the museum mile explore a variety if 13 different museums from Euston Road and the River Thames. From the Charles Dickenson museum to the British Library.

The last day I am planning on hitting Victoria Embankment  and Camden Market for some shopping! I heard the place is amazing after dark and especially along the Camden Locks.
