welcome to FodorsLama. You should re-post this over on the Europe Forum. (See the 'Change Forum' pull down menu? )

Just a few comment -- which I will repeat and add more details when you have the new thread over on "Europe"

You need to rearrange a few of those sites - it is better to group things in the same part(s) of town instead of jumping all over. Transportation eats up a lot of time. For examples -- The Transport Museum is in Covent Garden so they should be on the same day. Plus Trafalgar Square is near Covent Garden.

Tower Bridge is next door to the Tower of London so it doesn't make sense to do them on different days. Also -- one should head for the Tower very first thing in the morning.

See you over on the Europe board

Might add the Globe Theatre

on the Thames pretty cloes to the old prison the Klink

where the expression they "threw me in the Klink"

comes from...

Lama -- just noticed your question about the London Pass.

Please re-post over on Europe -- that is where most of us who know about London will see your questions. But until then . . . <u>do not</u> under any circumstances buy the London Pass!!! It is a real waste of money.

(You really will get <B>MUCH</B> better/useful response over on the Europe Forum. Or you can click on the triangle and ask the monitors to move this thread to Europe for you)
