The Tower Of London

Worth visiting!

Don't miss the Crown Jewels!

It’s probably the most bling you’ll ever see in your life, and security is tight as a mother! You have to pass by them on moving sidewalks and you can’t walk backwards. There’s also lots of Henry VIII stuff, like armor, etc. And of course there are the execution histories, as well as tour guides that tell marvelous gorey stories.

London Bridge

Worth visiting!

However...

It isn’t falling down, don’t worry.

Buckingham Palace

Worth visiting!

Worth visiting,

even if only to goggle at it from outside the fence.

New Orleans

Not worth visiting!

Overall, I was pretty unimpressed

Maybe that has something to do with my age - I can’t yet drink - but New Orleans seemed really dirty to me. I suppose it’s worth visiting to say you’ve been. It’s a unique culture if nothing else, but in the future I don’t think I’ll go back. Just not one of my favorite places.

Bourbon Street

Not worth visiting!

I was there at night...

...walking to a jazz club. Fortunately it was raining and I had my umbrella out—someone puked out a window onto my umbrella. Probably the most unpleasant experience of my life.

Walt Disney World

Not worth visiting!

I don't remember it all that well...

I was two the last time I went, and who knows when I’ll get to go back.

The Echo Lounge

Not worth visiting!

Not a great venue...

but it’s where I saw Mates of State.

Tuscaloosa

Not worth visiting!

Nothing much there...

Unless you’re touring the University of Alabama campus. Not the most exciting of places, Tuscaloosa…
