    I was in London in 2014 for 10 days and it wasn't nearly long enough. I stayed in Kensington so I was a short walk to Hyde Park. Unfortunately, Kensington Palace was under construction so no pictures :(
    My friend and I went to see the Prince Albert Memorial, Royal Albert Hall and the V & A Museum. We also saw Big Ben and walked all overall over that area. I was really fascinated by the architecture. I am really enjoying your videos because there are a lot of the places I saw when I was there. When she was working I got to see Phantom of the Opera one day and on another day went to Stonehenge. I would really like to get back there and take your walking tours in person. Thanks
