A seven-day-trip to London

If I went to London for a seven-day-trip, I'd choose the Barry House at Sussex Place, near Paddington Station to stay in. That's a three star hotel, where the double room costs £69.-- per night, breakfast included.
I'd certainly visit Buckingham Palace, the Tower, St. Paul's Cathedral, the Gherkin and possibly the musical "We will rock you".
I'd go to Soho, the Chinese quarter of London to find a delicious chinese meal in one of their restaurants.
I wouldn't hire a car to travel around but I'd buy a 3-day-ticket for the tube and would travel mainly by underground.

I've never been to London. But I did go to Australia and live there for 3 years.

I was fortunate that I was able to stick to the Aussie. I was the only one in the church who is a Chinese.

Working 2 evenings a week help to pay tuition. During vacation, I was able to go to Ballarat, a place where you may find some gold grain, though it is so small.

Australia is good place to live, the atmosphere, the people....

Some Hongkongers do not like it, for they love their busy life they've got used to so much.

I would recommend Australia, for its good climate and living style.

Going to the Philip Island to see the penguins coming back at sunset is not a bad option if you do visit Melbourne, Australia.

I've never been to Australia. But I did go to London years ago.

It seems that Australia is a very good place.

Thanks for your introduction.

Let me plan to there this winter!
