London help needed....
Hi all,
I have to date 4 messages below...where are all of you Londonphiles....
1)need help with evening river cruise. I have decided not to have the dinner cruise and instead want to find a nice restuarant with a view of the river. I know someone suggested oxo tower...are there any other suggestions?
2)Also, where do we go to link up with a evening cruise of the river thames. I think I have done one before, but I could not remember what pier and if we need reservations?? we are looking for one that runs the whole length thru london only and takes its time. and one we can sit on the top deck outside. we would love to do this on our last night there after dinner. kind of a send off looking at the sites of london at night. does anyone know the best pier to start, best line to take that will give us this?
3)on our Sunday there, we are heading to bayswater road for the artist sale along bayswater hyde park. we did this the last time and loved it! found some great original art and watercolors and lithographs! We will start out at about 9 or 10am and end up around the marble arch area around 11am. Does anyone know of a restuarant or hotel that serves sunday breakfast brunch around 11am in that area??
Come on you guys, I need some help to fine tune these small details!!!!!

If you're going to be here in October, you'll find most evening cruises have finished - it gets pretty chilly in the evenings. Try www.catamarancruisers.co.uk and www.citycruises.com. One other option would be to take a boat to Greenwich, leaving Westminster at 1600, have dinner there and return by train. The Trafalgar Tavern is a fine old building overlooking the river.
