Right again!

And may I add...visit Windsor Castle, Hampton Court Palace, and the Tower, if you're into history and/or royalty. Take some London Walks walking tours, facinating, fun, and educational.

I'd also add Shakespeare's Globe if you're into history as well. St. Paul's Cathedral is gorgeous and the theatre isn't to be missed in London!

The London Eye really is great, I would also recommend one of the bus or walking tours. You can very easily do Buckingham palace, Trafalgar Square, Covent Garden, River Thames, Big Ben, Houses of Parliament, & Tower of London in a few hours (if you are not stopping to shop anywhere).

Covent Garden is my favorite place to shop as it has regular stores close together, then a covered market too. Also lots of food choices. Food is expensive (to eat out) in London, one good choice is always a pub meal. Home cooked & normally cheaper than a sit down restaurant.

Just to let you know Stonehenge is not in London. It is about a good 90 minute drive away.

I don't want anyone to think that whilst in London I'll sneak in a quick visit to Stonehenge.
