2 Whitehall Court, Westminster London, England, United Kingdom
I was so very excited to arrive in London. Since I was a child, I have been an Anglophile. We took our shuttle to the hotel which was located in Central London, right near Trafalgar Square. Our hotel, the Royal Horseguards, was quite nice and backed up to the Thames. It was almost next to the Scotland Yard and appeared to be a hotel for military...
A travel blog entry from London by kitkatgoWe had so much fun just walking around, shopping, seeing Trafalgar Square, going into the National Gallery. We saw a special exhibit at the National Gallery...Rubens: A Master in the Making. It's quite beautiful in London, with so much history, and everyone is so nice.

A travel blog entry from London by kitkatgoEntry 7 of a trip titled: When the hurricane hit Cancun in August 2005, DH and I had to change our vacation plans. So instead of heading to the beach, we switched to going to London.
I had bought new bathing suits and new Tommy Bahama resort wear, ready to sip pina coladas and dance the night away in Cancun. However, the hurricane hit and devasted the whole area.

The castle was great, alt...

A travel blog entry from London by kitkatgoEarly this morning was the massive explosion at Hertfordshire Oil Storage Terminal in Hemel Hempstead. The sky was smoky and people were talking about hearing the boom in the early morn. It was quite the beginning of our day. So we started off again at Victoria Station, and again it was freezing ass cold. Brrrrr. Since another tour to...
A travel blog entry from London by kitkatgoWe walked around a bit, then as part of our travel package, we had tickets for a boat tour on the Thames. It was a bit chilly, but an interesting tour with a different view and some of the city's history. Got to see some of the sights I hadn't seen yet. Our package also included afternoon tea at the hotel, so we took advantage of that as lunc...
