Traveling to London in February
I'm bringing my 11-year old to Europe (from US) to see London, Paris,
and Normandy. Any advice on where to stay or where to avoid? I've never been to the UK but greatly looking forward to it. Any advice is appreciated. |

(Even coming from Southern California, I haven't found winter in Europe nearly so cold as similar lattitudes in the U.S., and NEVER as bad as the Minnesota winters I was raised with.) |

This may be off-topic, but perhaps not - in the U.S., quite a few restaurants offer lower prices at noon than for the evening meal. If that is true in London, too, your suggestion of a light supper in one's room makes even better sense. (Provides more chance to work off the calories, too, if one's heaviest meal is at noon.) It's not at all off-topic, and it's similar in the UK, including London. Also, if you can eat early (usually before 7 or 7.30pm) you'll be able to take advantage of specials that many restaurants offer- "pre-theatre" and the like. -- (*) ... of the royal duchy of city south and deansgate http://www.davidhorne.net - real address on website "He can't be as stupid as he looks, but nevertheless he probably is quite a stupid man."
