LONDON - Bus #15





This past week, while in London, I discovered a wonderful, easy way to see the city - Bus #15 baby! ... it leaves right from Edgware Road, in the direction of Marble Arch, every 15 minutes.

So, get your two British Pounds in exact change ready and look for the bus stop with the sign for #15. Once there, purchase your bus ticket from the machines before you board the bus (very important). You're on the bus now? climb to the second floor and try to get a seat in the front row (or near it) for the best views. You're now, set to go!

Get your camera ready and let the show begin! Oxford Street, Regent Street, Piccadilly Circus, St. Paul's Cathedral, Nelson's Column, Trafalgar Square, Temple Area, The Tower of London and Tower Bridge.

To return to Edgware Road, where you started, you can either:

- Take the Tube from Tower Hill station - by the Tower of London - to Edgware Road station.

- Or, walk along the Victoria Embankment towards Big Ben, for some additional scenery by the river. When your feet are too tired for another step, grab the underground from any of the stations along the way - ie. Blackfriars, Temple, Embankment or Westminster - and from these stations, you can ride back to Edgware Road Station. Voila! you're back where you started.

Enjoy the sights and take pictures!
