Any suggestions for getting photos home safely? Are the SIM cards from digital cameras erased by air port scanners?
England swings like the pendulum do.
Thanks, Tout le monde! J'aime les Freepers!
No. Also, you could get a small portable hard drive. They are very affordable now and you can transfer your photos and videos onto them easily.
That was quick! Thank you very, very much Cor! I’ll get a small hard drive. I hadn’t thought of that. Just put it on the conveyor belt along with everything else when going through airport security?
I’d rather take the ship...
An onion and cheddar sandwich is this: sliced red onion on a mound of shredded cheddar. Dry white bread. That’s all. As to a pork pie - google a traditional British pork pie. The British have a real thing about TRADITION with their food.
For sure.

Day trips to Bathe and stonehenge and to Dover

Westminster castle tour and lunch nearby
Heheh!
Chinatown is small, but if you like chinese food may be better than normal english cuisine.
I forgot to add the Old Cheshire Chese House pub.
harrods for lunch or food shopping.
That song is great.
Agree -- truly a "must see" for English history.
Okay. There are many snarky posts on here about the dangers of England these days with the middle eastern population being there. I can get that but I’m also hoping you have a nice trip there (and please post pics when you get back)!
But in keeping with the snark I’ll add a thought I had when I read this:
“England swings like the pendulum do”...
‘Bobbies on bicycles two by two. Westminster Abbey the Tour, Big Ben...the rosy red cheeks of the little Muslims’
