My GF and I is going to London on Feb 28th and returning on March 9th. Does anyone have any fun thing that they can recommend. We are going to be staying with family and friends that lives there. We will be spending a couple of days in Paris, but a part from that, we do not have anything else on the agenda.
We will definitely do sightseeing etc. I would love to hear what other fun things there are to do???

Re: Anyone been to London
the V&A museum is wonderful (Victoria & Albert)
There are also a ton of great bus day-trips. The Jack the Ripper trip was fabulous - there are companies who do this sort of thing and have kiosks all over the airport and in major city touristy areas
Portabello road is always fun to walk down - all the funky shops and outdoor markets (even in winter)
Harrods and Harvey Nichols are great department stores (Harrods is more quinticentially London,k IMHO)
The Freud museum was a hit with our group a while back.
High Tea at Marks and Spencer (or anywhere else for that matter) is a must!!
Have FUN!!

Re: Anyone been to London
if you like theater and detective stories and have a strong heart I really recommend a play 'The Woman in Black'. It's playing in a small theater by Covent Gardens called Fortune Theatr. I absolutelly loved it! It's scarry, but very very interesting!

Re: Anyone been to London
Shamma,
I forgot too that the person I went to Paris with spoke French and it made traveling/ordering much easier. The French are nicer when they understand you.
I went to London in June and it rained everyday and it gets very chilly. Dress warmly.
Edited to say: I'm all about food. Please eat some dessert in Paris!!!
