I was captivated. London is historical especially the gothic structures of Houses of Parliament, Big Ben, National Library and Buckingham palace etc- where royalty still resides. The views were even more beautiful from London eye. London is impeccably classy but also expensive. I used tube while travelling within the city which is cheap, fast and efficient. I also enjoyed the panoramic views from the Thames river cruise, especially loved capturing them in my camera  . Luckily for me it wasn’t cold ; start of spring when I could savour the laid back time at the gorgeous parks in the city. The folks are also very warm and welcoming…I truly loved my hotel staff who helped me with the directions daily  Now I can’t wait to explore the entire Europe in its glory, this time with my family along…!!
