Our trip to London was successful thanks to all of you on both sides of the pond. My daughter learned a lot, and I hope this inspired her to travel and have confidence in the ability to seek information from a variety of sources.
We used Rick Steve’s audio in V&A, British Museum & Library. One air pod in each ear so we could communicate with each other while listening. The unexpected bonus was the visit to High Clere Castle. Ann loved Downton Abbey. Learning to use the tube (thank you for recommending City Mapper), transferring to the GWR, the $40 15 minute cab from Newbury to HighClere each way (it’s Sunday, and a special weekend event) so worth seeing a grown woman’s face that happy. We walked a lot, laughed a lot, ate not a lot bc we just don’t normally but everything was wonderful. I had my first meat pie! She had her first fish and chips - twice. On the flight home, her screen wouldn’t work on a full flight. The cabin crew member apologized and BA sent her a $50 voucher only to be used on BA. So now she wants to go somewhere with her voucher😳.
I don’t think I’m expert enough to offer advice to travelers. I have one more question. How do restaurants in London manage to prepare food that is delivered to your table hot and have it remain hot while you eat?
Bless you all. Thank goodness we left before the state of affairs in the world. Stay safe. Judy
