We went to England in September, 2005 with Duncan. Ian and Michaela came to the airport to see us off.
This was the view from our window in a hostel in Earl's Court, London.
Where else but in London do you find phone booths like these?
A "must see" place to go is Camden Market. It's ENOURMOUS and has something for everyone.
Duncan found the PERFECT pair of shoes to match his jacket.
Wai-Kam checked out some very colourful clothing at Camden Market. There were too many shops and stalls to look at.
Every alley-way is used for shops!
By noon time, it gets really crowded!
An actual "Beefeater" (named Bill) gave us a great tour of the Tower of London.
This pub was right around the corner from where we stayed in Earl's Court.
We rode the "London Eye" and had an incredible view of London from inside one of these capsules.
A view from the London Eye: Parliamaent Buildings with "Big Ben".
The skyline near the London Eye at sunset.
Lots of good food at Camden Market.
We sampled some Thai food at the Market.
The desserts at a Japanese food stall looked really tempting.
We visited Lacock, a 300-year-old village which was used for some scenes in the Harry Potter movies.
The baths at, where else,... Bath.
Strolling around the town of Bath.
Wai-Kam found a nice Mercedes outside a HSBC in Bath.
Couldn't decide between an Aston Martin or the Mercedes.

We just had to visit the "Elvisly Yours" and "London Beatles Store" to see the memorabilia there.
The courtyard in back of our hostel in Earl's Court. A great place for morning Tai Chi.
Some of the many, many stalls in Notting Hill. Lots of Antique Shops in this district.Also used as background in the Julia Roberts movie, "Notting Hill".
