| Well I'm going to London with my school tomorrow and I'll stay there for two weeks! So yeah, I won't be active for that time. So any tips on London people would like to share with me before I go? | 2010-07-08 18:58:00 Author: blizzard_cool  Posts: 752 |
| Sure! Most of the museums and galleries are free, and you only have to pay for certain exhibitions etc. These include: The Science Museum The Nartural History Museum The Victoria & Albert (The V&A) The Tate & The Tate Modern The National Gallery There are also tonnes of parks etc which are really nice. Try to visit most of the landmarks, and if you find most of these areas a little crowded, you can still see them from high above the city on the famous London Eye. While on the Southbank, after visiting the Eye, you can go to the London Aquarium, or just have a walk along the river. Anyway, that's all I can think of for now, message me if you have any questions  | 2010-07-08 19:27:00 Author: Plasmavore  Posts: 1913 |

Ooooooo, haven't been to London for years, at least five! The last time we went was to a concert in St John's, Smith Square and in between rehearsal and performance we went outside for a walk and a roll and walked past The Houses of Parliament and Westminster Abbey. It was awesome just being near those awesome buildings, me being a country girl an'all.  Hope you have a great time blizzard! Icey | 2010-07-08 21:05:00 Author: IceMaiden  Posts: 1057 |

| And we're actually having a summer this year. London is an amazing city when there's sunshine, it transforms. We get so little of it, everyone gets out and about and really appreciates it. You'll have a great time! Plasmavore's covered most of it, a long walk along the South Bank from Westminster to Tower Bridge is an absolute must. | 2010-07-08 23:09:00 Author: julesyjules  Posts: 1156 |
