The ferry is definitely the more spectacular, and it goes without saying
that the music does usually play for part of the journey...

I'm just used to taking the train, as I travel to Hamilton Square quite
a bit from Manchester.

I suppose I should have guessed that, rather spoils it I think.

Edinburgh, Glasgow..... some time!

And, of course, he [Gerry Marsden] also wrote it.

Thank you all for the advices

You meant 'advice'. It's never plural in English.

Well I'd love to visit the Natural History Museum. And I'd love to see
some castles. I live in South America and, of course, New Word's
countries doesn't have Middle Age castles..

I'm planning to travel to London in Octuber. How many days should I
spend to meet London without lose important places to view/stay?

impossible question really.

Personally I would want to make two walks. One taking in Soho,
Buckingham palace, British Museum and the Inns of Court down to the
Thames and nexy day continue along the Thames to Greenwich after trip
on the "eye". But thats how I like to see cities. If you want to do
all the museums and galleries you might need 14 days!

They don't have european 'castles' for sure, but a wealth of other old
buildings, temples and monuments. Even 'european' stuff can be quite
impressive- thinking for example of the cathedral in Merida (Mexico.)
That's as old as many churches that visitors to Europe ooh and ah at!

You can save a lot of money on the British train fares if you buy your
ticket well ahead of time.

By the way, is it possible to buy those tickets through internet? Are
the websites reliable?

thanks
