London Calling


My daughter and I are traveling to London this week and the next. Since I travel for business I accumulate miles, so the airfare is basically free (with the small exception of the $150 per ticket award fare "service charge"). We've selected a hotel in Paddington, very close to the train/tube station. She's got her passport - she is very proud to have this symbol of an international traveler. Travelers checks? - check! We're ready to go!

I've been to London a few times, but mostly on business with the exception of my very first trip which was for my wife's and my honeymoon. During the next 10 days I will spend one day in the city for business, but the rest of the trip my daughter and I will be tourists, enjoying one of the great cities of this world!

Hey Lance...that's great news man...!
London bridge is falling down, falling down ..falling down...
How old is your daughter...?
Should be a wonderful trip and grounds for a lot of good memories to be made.
Enjoy the trip, travel safe and take lots of pictures.

I am envious. London is a great city, and so much to see and do. Have a great trip!

You need to look up and find Ace Cafe. It's a big part of motorcycle culture especially in England. Have a good and safe trip buddy!

Thanks Baron - she's 17, a Jr. in High School, and her first trip internationally.

Canajun, thanks. I agree, even with 10 days here we are just scratching the surface of this great city!

Danny, thanks for the tip - we'll have to check the Ace Cafe out!
