Guest guest Posted April 28, 2004 Report Share Posted April 28, 2004 Bonnie, I *LOVED* the Millenium Wheel! What an incredible view of London! Have your kids take pictures so you can experience the view without the height issues. They are going enjoy it. > The kids are going on the Millenium Wheel but *I'm* not since I HATE heights!

Guest guest Posted April 29, 2004 Report Share Posted April 29, 2004 You sound like me about heights. I wouldn't go up the Eiffel Tower cause I'm too afraid. I stayed below it, with and , who were afraid as well. I didn't miss out on too much though. I had to fight off a South American gypsy girl who tried to steal my baguette. HA ha! It's true. And, bought a statue of the tower, and we took pictures of us laying down my it. Like we were giants at the Eiffel Tower. We had fun. I wouldn't go in the eye either. Tom and went to the roof top of one of the cathedrals somewhere in Europe (can't remember which one) and I wouldn't do that either. Just stayed below and looked at all the grave stone thingys inside. You might be interested in going on a ghost walk. In fact, I'm sure you would. There are a lot of different ones. Ask around as to which is the best. We did those in London, York, Edinburough (sp?), and a few other places. You get taken around and told all these stories of ghosts. It's really cool. Make sure you go to the Tower of London. Lots of cool stories, and you can see the crown jewels. They are amazing. But, the stories about things that happened at the tower, and the people imprisoned there are so amazing. I think would love it. My kids did. If you like knowing and learning about all the tourture they used to inflict on people, there's the London Dungeon. My kids liked that, and was scared. They have a dungeon in York too. I thought it was cool. I sound morbid, but that's a major part of England's history. All the morbid stuff. I think it's so interesting. But, some may think I'm weird. Well, I'm sure some do anyway! hehe Oh, and Stonehenge is just a bunch of rocks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 29, 2004 Report Share Posted April 29, 2004 Re: Bonnie - UK Visit Thanks ! We plan on going to the Tower of London. I never made it there when I was there in 1971 and 1976. We see Stonehenge and it's just amazing to me that they put these huge rocks up!! I was there once and can't wait to go back! and I have to sit down and decide what we want to do during our one day of free time in London - besides visiting EDSers that live near there!

Guest guest Posted April 29, 2004 Report Share Posted April 29, 2004 Bonnie: Go see Avery Circle since you have already seen Stonehenge. At Avery you can walk among the rocks (not hewn as Stonehenge's are) and so very much more interesting and enjoyable...just laying around in a field with sheep around, also spooky if your there on a misty morning. A guide will take you around and provide much more history and demonstrate dowsing and you can try it yourself, more off the beaten track, north of Stonehenge and not commercialized as Stonehenge is. You get the real goods and a feeling of what Stonehenge might have been like without the chain link fencing. We experienced and earned much more there. Silbury Hill nearby is unusual, seen in the distance and ancient burial sites nearby. Also the white horse at Uffington is neat but you would probably need a car rental to get to and see it. Wish I was going!!!!! Bernie wrote; We see Stonehenge and it's just amazing to me that they put these huge rocks up!!

Guest guest Posted April 30, 2004 Report Share Posted April 30, 2004 I'm not sure, but I think that my brother told me that Avery Circle is much cooler than Stonhenge. He's really into all that nature/Gods/Goddesses stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
