Another one of the Magnificent Seven; 7 privately owned cemeteries built in London in the 19th century.
Brompton opened in 1840 and is these days more of a park than a place of mourning, as is proved by the hordes of bicycles that will run you out of your shoes if you're not carefull.
It is w…

I had the greatest time when I went throught the Cabinet War Rooms to explore what Churchill and his men went through. It is an amazing journey to listen to the guide as it tells you the ins and outs of how this military leader and his fellow leaders were sheltered during the bombing. They lived, at…

Early on sunday its a lot less crowed, shortly before the market closes however you find the best bargains. The area is also full of nice cafés an…

Not so far from Tower bridge lies HMS beltfast permanetly moored in the Thames. This is an old WW2 cruiser which participated in the Normandy Landings (Operation Overlord or D-day) and the sinking of an German Warship of the North Cape in Norway.
Is it worth the trip? YES! My view might be biased…

I lived across the street from Hyde Park while in London. Literally. Could just step outside my door. It is so nice there: paddle boats, jogging/walking trails, yummy snacks, lots of people hanging out on blankets just enjoying each others company. I went there many times to get some studying done, …

Kensal Green is marvelous. If Highgate is my favorite of the Magnificent Seven, this one comes a damn close second.
Founded in 1833, it is one of the oldest and most refined public buriel grounds in London. Rows and rows of Angelic figures grace the tombstones and mausoleums.
You can browse …

I saw Les Meserables when I was about 10 years old so it has been quite awhile. I loved the show then and even did a musical theatre piece of Cosette's, "Castle on a Cloud."
After seeing it again, so many years later, it was still as great as ever. The story line is very easy to follow and it is …

I have visited this gallery almost every day on every trip I have made to London since 1994. The gallery is all portraits in every media (oil paintings, sculpture, watercolors, photography), mainly British royalty, statespeople and celebrities from the early 1400s on.
The gallery is free, though …

Anyone going to the carnival will have a great time. The Carnival starts early and goes on well into the evening. The streets are rammed packed with people as th…

Selfridges is a large department store in Oxford Street. A nice place if you want to shop. Less exclusive than Harrods, but here you have enough space to walk with your backpack on your back (in Harrods you have to carry your bag in your hands because of the safety). Here you can find everything you…

What can I say! The Lion King Musical was out of this world! The opening song, Circle of Life was incredible, moving, and sent chills down my back! The characters original costumes, the set and the atmosphere were so amazing and just made the show so much fun. The characters were interactive with th…

I have been to Covent Gardens, in the centre of London, a couple of times now and ech time my experience has been totally different. The first time I went I had read nothing about it and I had limited time so we just wandered aimlessly until we had to move on. I wish I had stopped for a beer at the …

Any serious visit to the V&A will require several hours or even a second day!
At some point in your visit you may want to have a meal or a refreshment. The V&A Café is located in the V&A's original refreshment rooms, the "Morris, Gamble and Poynter Rooms." These three rooms formed the first mus…
