What's the point? He won't find any fine fine booty up in Manchester! :p

erm obviously...how can he when its all here in london?! :D

hmm you should visit the london dungeon and go to madam tussaudes and planetarium. london aquarium is ok..not that impressive...get yourself up on the london eye and go to the museums and stuff...natural history museum and stuff. your best bet is to travel by tube, its really quick and convenient, and cheaper too.go to leicester square, its amazing there, one of my favourite places and oxford street is only 5 minutes walk away.
 
madam tussaudes are for people with fetishes or like being scared. Freaky place. The dungeon is a good laugh. They'll even put you on the rack and make you half an inch taller if you call in advance and let them know.

Nice pics B

What was your favorite places to see? Is the eye even worth going on?

I would say no on the eye. Those pics aren't from the eye, they are from a church. There was this wicked church where you climb crazy high, and it has a dome whisper ceiling, where there are tiny holes. If there is another person directly across from you (its a good 150+ feet across), you can whisper in the little hole, and they can hear you through their hole.

At the top of this church, you can look all around London. It was cheaper, less crowded, and you can spend all of the time you want.


Two guys who were with us on our trip went on the eye, they said it was worthless compared to the church. Unfortunately, I don't remember the name of the cathedral. I can ask my bro though.

I heard that's why Li is planning a trip there.
 
LOL - Thanks all.

One of my day trips will be out to see Stonehenge which leads me to my next question. Which tour would you recommend?

Stonehenge + Bath + Salisbury

OR

Stonehenge + Bath + Windsor
 
^ BUMP ^
 
Dunno much about sailsbury. I know it's got a good cathedral. I imagine windsor will be going to windsor castle.
If that's the case, your going to want to go to windsor castle... its huge, very old, kept nice because its still occupied, one of many official residences of the queen.

No idea what is at bath other than some roman baths. Bath is not too far away from me.

On the london eye... I did it once... decided not to do it again. It was ok... but expensive for what it is, and if it's a hazy cloudy day (which it will be if your coming anytime soon) you won't be able to see particularly far anyway. You'll see it though, it's across the river from parliament. When you see big ben and parliament imagine the scene from V.

Oh yeah you should walk by westminster abbey if you get the chance.

do the science museum and natural history, oh and if u get a chance, come down to hampshire (conveniently where i live lol) and grab a ferry cross to the isle of white and do Osborne House. its the place where Queen Victoria died and her summer house.
its lovely and amazing.
