London calling: As we touched down in London while listening to the Kooks, the Kinks, the Beatles, and every other British band we could think of, it only took one glance out the window to fall head-over-heels in love with the city. London was everything we had expected and more -- a sprawling metropolis that holds anything and everything you could ever want, combined with years of fascinating history and politics! It's a very magical feeling to be walking around in a massive city, then turn the corner and find a tranquil and beautiful park.
