Wish I had more air miles saved up. I'm just 2000 short from getting an upgrade to first class for one of the flights. Leg room would have been soooo sweet to have.

Originally posted by tsaxlady View PostYou may want to check with your frequent flyer program and see if you can buy the miles needed. I did that once with United needed less than 500 miles and you can buy miles in 500 increments with United. Buying the miles I needed was less than paying for the first class upgrade one way.

As for me starting it- clearly I look up to my Aunty Eh-T. Taught me everything I know. Nods.
I thought I changed the subject! I expect some comment from the G4 any moment pointing out this is not the Gabit way!
Thanks to Pengyn, SamJackShipLover and Mala for the sig.

Also, if you can get to Trafalgar Square, that's pretty nice...and Westminster Abbey.
I'm planning on seeing Buckingham Palace when I get there next time...maybe take a stroll down Pall Mall to get there. And the Ripper tour."Live Peace - Speak Kindness - Dwell in Possibility"

If you want to see oodles of stuff but not spend a lot of time at many of them, I recommend the red-bus tour. It covers a sizeable portion of London, and you can actually hop on and off as you desire.
I found the London Eye experience definitely depended on who was in the bubble with you
Our beefeater/tourguide at the Tower was awesome, but I personally thought the jewels themselves weren't really worth all the climbing of stairs -- you're going to want to check out what is easily accessible before making any decisions!
Mme Toussaud's was cool, but it's an insanely long queue. Same with the London Dungeons.
The Ripper walk was informative, and the group who went was fun - it's all in the company you keep!
I personally love the (FREE) museums, and going to a live show or two (sadly, not free ) ... then again, I've been there a few times. Hopefully this time around I can go into Buckingham palace -- although wandering around the Canada Gate there is cool too Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaah - so much to do, so little time!...awaiting inspiration...and time/energy/know-how!

Julia, like everyone has said, there is soo much to do and see! I'd suggest first finding out what is easily accessible and then perhaps going from there. I'd hate to suggest something that I loved without realizing how hard it might be for you to either get there or see it.
You might like to check this link out: Accessible London
It seems to have quite a few suggestions and if you go to the second link on the page (A-Z Accessible London Guides) the links will take you alphabetically through the major tourist sites around London and how easy they are to get into.
Hope this helps!
