If you like Indian food they have great Indian food there! All the museums are free so you should definitely check them out--I really enjoyed seeing the Rosetta Stone. | ||

The London Eye is pretty cool, 3rd tallest ferris wheel in the world and gives you a good view of the whole city. And then of course all the standard sights like Buckingham Palace and St Pauls Cathedral. | ||

My favourite parts are Covent Garden and Leicester Square. Covent Garden has some shops and pubs but the main draw is the free street performances. Very entertaining, at least for a while. Leicester Square is just a nice part, not necessarily a lot to do there (some clubs) but I would suggest going to a Premiere film showing there if you can (something good is on). It is expensive for a film but the experience there is totally unlike anywhere else. I like to just hang around there. It's also right near a small chinatown which is interesting (Just checked your location so you may want to ignore that. My suggestion for London is finding a shop or something you want to go to and wandering around from there. As for sites, go on the London Eye and pick out what you want to see. Just some other places: Camden, Picadilly Circus, Trafalgar Square, Hyde Park, Oxford Street, Museums and pick out some famous landmarks you want to see. I've seen most of them so many times that it's hard what to recomend. Oh, also, it's very busy, but you might like to see The Changing Of The Guard at Buckingham Palace. | ||

It's not that close to London. About two hours away by car and I don't know if there are coach trips to Stonehenge but there probably is somewhere. And Alffla, there are no rules for how to eat Yorkshire puddings, but they're delicious. | ||

- Buckingham Palace - Westminster / Big ben - London bridge - Oxford street Then there is a couple of places: - Natural History Museum - Camden Town - Madame Tussauds (not free) Take your chance to visit places outside London like - Windsor Castle - Bath - Stonehenge is not worth it but give it a go if you like And if you're running out of places to go, go to Canary Wharf at lunch time, I'll take you around. | ||
