It is down to the final countdown. One more week and I will be hanging out in London. I am so excited, my travel partner Scarlet and I got together just the other night to discuss sites to see. We are going to do all the obvious ones, like Big Ben, Tower of London, London Bridge, Museums, Parliament, Buckingham Palace, and so much more. We are staying in a hostel for the first week. Then when our friend Kerry gets back (she is the whole reason we are going over.) We are going to go to her house in Portsmouth and then on to Brighton. I am so excited. Once we meet up with Kerry the 3 of us are going to journey to see: Liverpool, Manchester, Bath,Salisbury, and Oxford.
Although it has been rather stressful, trying to figure out all the things you really need for traveling. The only travel we will have to do publicly is the first week that we are in London. The best deal that i have found is to purchase an oyster card. It allows you to use any public transportation not just the tube or the bus, but all!
A very helpful book that I found was Let's Go London On a Budget. It has so much helpful information. Also things to do if you were going to stay in London and work and what not. The book is filled with all kinds of websites. Also another book that has been used and I would suggest is National Geographic Traveller Guide to Great Britain. This book is more pricey then the first but it also hold good information and great pictures.
Let's Go London On a Budget $16.95
National Geographic Traveller Guide to Great Britain $27.95
But of course you could go onto amazon.com and find these books and more to your liking for a cheaper price.
Til Next Time.
