Welcome to London
In 2017 we went to London for a few days before joining a land tour throughout the UK. We did this trip with our good friends John and Susan from North Carolina.
Then at the end of the Norway cruise in 2018 we again spent a few days in London seeing more of the sights of the city and surrounding areas.
There is so much to see in this city that it is now one of our very favorite cities and anytime we can do a cruise out of Southampton we will spend some time there.
