A London Layover

Towers, Towers Everywhere

I spent the better part of a day in London as part of a northern European cruise.  While I did not get to spend a lot of time in the famous city, the time I had was well spent exploring some of the city's more famous sites.

Live From Liverpoole, England

Home of the Beatles: Liverpoole

Liverpoole is probably most famous as the home of the Beatles, and during my day in Liverpoole a few years back I saw no lack of Beatles-focused tours and tourist traps, including a tour on a yellow submarine.   However, we found many ways to explore Liverpoole without Beatles mania interfering.
