People that visited London, get in here!

The Library of London is bad ass. We know someone that works there that is the only reason we went. I would have never gone to it other than having a friend in it. They have displays set up inside like a museum, if you have the time check it out it's not something you think about seeing on vacation but it is worth the trip.

Oh I forgot to say, you can drive out to Lakenheath and see where my old house used to be. From what I've seen on Google Earth, I'm pretty sure it's been leveled, but still.

No shit, I used to live in Lakenheath as a kid. Dad was Airforce, I think alot of that place has been torn down since though.

My Dad was USAF stationed at Mildenhall, the house was in Lakenheath's base housing. A few years back I looked at the neighborhood and it was in the middle of construction/demolition. If they did it like they did here at Dyess, they built new then take their time knocking down the old.

Around what time were ya'll living there? My Dad was in the same situation. Worked on base at Mildenhall, and we lived in Lakenheath at the base housing. He got transfered to Louisiana right before they started tearing stuff down. Then retired soon after cause he already didn't like Louisiana, and they were gunna ship us off to New Jersey. He was a Master Seargent, worked on either KC-10 or KC-135 tankers while he was there I believe.

The rest of the family had been to England before I was born. I was there from 1980 until 91. He chose Dyess over moving to D.C.(I don't remember the base name). My Dad was a firefighter and retired as a Chief Master Sgt.

I think we moved back to the states around 91-92. So I bet our Dads worked there together. Wouldn't of been in the same field, but both being officers may have met before. Small world.

Pretty much everything has been said as far as I know lol. I was there last month and did

London Bridge,
Big Ben,
London eye
A movie museum right next to the london eye (if you are into movies its cool)
Bulkingham Palace (and change of gaurd)
Right down the street is an Austrian military monument, pretty cool.
Various old castles.

Did that all in one day. Wear running shoes or hiking boots and the undergound subway will be worth the money if you dont have another way to get around. The tour buses are also cool but I didn't use them. Wish I could have had more time to do more museums, and historical stuff. Its expensive as shit there! I think it was 1.6 Dollar to the british pound. Worth it though. have fun

Shit man
The imperial war museum is awesome, Ive spent already one day there and will be goingback tomorrow to finish. its 1.70 dollar to the sterling pound right now, although ive only spent so far about 40 quid on stuff, like the tube card and credit on my mobile. Ive only had two days here so far and its fucking awesome.

On another note, I asked for different opinions from all the members because I am here for two months...
