London has so many places to see and things to do ... For the day a
Hop-on Hop off tour to get a taste and the urge to do a longer land
vacation may be best ... A play that night may be pushing it ... but
London theater is superb ...

When we first visited London ... experienced NYC subway travelers like
us ... looked and saw that it would be no problem ... 2 changes thats
all ... and a short walk to the hotel ... I won't bore with the
details ... but during an attempt at the first switch ... we very
smartly decided to surface and take a cab the rest of the way ...
either that or see how good the London coronary units operated ...
