Frequently, many visitors to the U.K don't really venture past London, which is a shame, because there are many other interesting places to stay in UK.

My trouble is, I am afraid of heights and I wished I was not because I love the history of London and would love to ride the London Eye to see al the amazing buildings from the air.

All you have to do is walk down the South Bank and the theatre just happens for free all around you. Covent Garden at the weekends is also a great place for free entertainment. Other free stuff: the Serpentine Gallery, The changing of the guard at Buckingham Palace, Speaker's Corner.. the list is endless What I really love about the London Eye is not the ride itself but the area it’s in.

Is it modern, cool and edgy or is it ugly and useless? Having looked at it from the outside I'm still unsure (My fear of heights led me to decline a chance of having a better look...) Great quote though... "London is an incredibly boring city when viewed from above" :-) keep up the good work I’m really unsure about the London eye.

Great quote though…

Surely if people heeded such signs there would be no galleries of modern art!" SPOT ON! btw thank you for a good shot of the British Museum's atrium. It IS beautiful. I actually had not see it (oh, confession ...) You write “Some of the minimalist exhibits had lines around them with signs “Please do not cross this line”.
