I have a secret yearning to go on one of those open top tour buses .... and the amphibious thing across the Thames ... and up to the top of the Shard .... there's a million things I haven't done. After reading this I'm going to try and knock some off my list :) DD's Diaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05398659302311180518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7290395635850697105.post-14808532233003272082015-04-20T05:33:01.833-04:002015-04-20T05:33:01.833-04:00We've been in England since January and still ...We've been in England since January and still haven't been to London (except for a trip to Heathrow to collect the dog, which doesn't count.) #1 is flying in in May and we'll be spending a few days letting him enjoy the city before dragging him off to Somerset. I've been debating what to include on our itinerary, and the cable car sounds like it will fit the bill. None of us are very keen on crowds with selfie sticks (4 years living in Asia has turned us off to that, believe me) but I've always wanted to see the Tower of London - not for the jewels, but for the more grisly aspects of its history. Your itinerary sounds like a great balance of seeing the sights as well as some lovely relaxing. If only we are lucky enough to get some fine weather.... Thanks for the wonderful suggestions!MsCarolinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03623997911568143459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7290395635850697105.post-91906172636213202762015-04-16T10:43:10.629-04:002015-04-16T10:43:10.629-04:00I love London and it's history (I like to walk...I love London and it's history (I like to walk so I get to see different bits) - the cable car over the Thames is lovely - we've done that and then river boat back to Blackfriars as a round tripMuddling Alonghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04702217530704657676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7290395635850697105.post-16278529045784239402015-04-14T19:46:50.105-04:002015-04-14T19:46:50.105-04:00We are always passing through London to somewhere ...We are always passing through London to somewhere else...
