Last month I asked for input regarding my two scheduled England tours since I recently had a flare up of an chronic knee condition. Thank you to the many who were so kind to respond to my dilemma. Update: I went ahead as planned after having had 3 OrthoVisc and 1 cortisone injections armed with a cane, meds, ice bag, TENS unit and had a great trip. Took all steps one at a time, lift when available, husband handled my suitcase. I only missed out on one or two country walks. Thank you for all your suggestions! I'm so glad I went!

In response to what I enjoyed the most.....on the Best of Great Britain my favorite would be Vindolanda, a Roman fort excavation site. Best food was an Eastern European restaurant in York, Barbacon I think, where we enjoyed authentic homemade awesome pierogies. The Best of London? That's a tough one! I think I was most wowed hearing the Royal Philharmonic perform the music of Queen (not part of the tour). " 5 Guys Named Moe" at the Marble Arch Theatre was also fabulous as was "Evita." We did the London Eye on a super clear day, also great! Our dinner group of seven all loved eating at "L'Autre", a Mexican and Polish bistro in Mayfair. We loved the pierogies and kielbasa. Another top of the list item was The Globe Theatre tour with a fabulous guide! Wish we had seen a play there...next time for sure!
