Visit London

PDF Print E-mail

For the past several years, I have wanted to visit London.

It is not particularly the tourist sites that attracted me. I know there are a lot of places to visit in Big Ben Clock TowerLondon. There is Hyde Park, Trafalgar Square, and Big Ben, to name just a few. The real attraction of visiting London for me, however, was seeing my friends.

Some of my best buddies have been living there for the past two years, and they have been trying to get me out to see them. There is a great night scene in London England, and the music is out of this world. I've been looking for a chance to party and get away from it all, and it seemed like just the perfect way to do it.



I couldn't entirely resist the conventional scores stuff, of course. The first day I was there, I took a London bus tour on one of those famous double-decker buses. I have to admit that it was a lot of fun. It is always nice to be able to get shown around a new city, and from the top of one of those buses, you have a great view of everything going on around you.

I can't say that I took it all in;  there's just too much to take in. Nonetheless, it gave me just a little bit of an idea of what was out there and what I wanted to see.

When you visit London, you really probably shouldn't bother to rent a car. This is a mistake that many London visitors make. One of the great things about England is its excellent public transportation. When visiting London, you can get anywhere you might want to go on the trains. They are amazing. They go absolutely everywhere, and are much faster than anything we have here in the states.

Growing up in metropolitan Detroit, I was particularly blown away to see such great public transit. There is nothing like it in all of Michigan, and very little in the United States.

For me, the best part of my trip to visit London was my time in the pubs. The dance clubs were nice, but the pubs are really the center of English culture. I learned some drinking songs, met people from all over the world, tried out quite a few excellent beers, and really got a feeling for the culture of the place.

If you visit London and don't have at least a pint or two a day, you have missed out on the whole point of your trip.
