London Calling

[Alex]

Nobody ever takes my travel advice so I won't give it. Just make sure you leave a day or two to just randomly wander, take the subway, get off at a random stop, walk into a random bar or otherwise see real Londoners and not just other tourists and the Londoners who cater to tourists.

(Haven't been to London, but that is my truncated advice for traveling anywhere.)

We try to do a bit of this where ever we go, hit a market and make a picnic, stop and hang out at a park wit the locals, get recommendations from our waiters for places that would never be listed in a travel guide.
