London, UK

London is a phenomenal world-class city. The history of the romans and the early settlements by the Thames river are well preserved. They provide strong contrast to the modern architecture in the business district. England isn't well known for their cuisine, but I was surprised by their curries. The house ales are second to none. Its great when the domestics are better than the imports- for once. Riding on the Underground is a convenient way to get around the city on the cheap. The other trains give you the opportunity to commute from the suburbs to downtown without spending all of your pub money. Check back soon for a more in-depth write up and photos.
