London Video Links

On this page, I put in some links to blog-posts and videos that I have made on our various trips to London and the UK.

City of London, London Bridge and Canary Wharf in the distance
Gorgeous city, fine blend of the modern and the historical.  Check out this video of the City of London, London Bridge and Canary Wharf in the distance.



Kensington Park and Hyde Park walks
While in London, I took a morning walk from Kensington Park to Hyde Park. I was suffering from jet lag, so I had no problems waking up early. It was a beautiful walk in the morning. The weather was wonderful - absolutely delightful to spend some time in these parks.

Imperial War Museum
Free admission.  Great place to visit for several hours, up to a day if you spend significant time reading the exhibits. Easy to get to, take the Tube to Lambeth North and walk to the museum.

Greggs Cafe
In London, we enjoy Gregg's cafe.  The coffee is decent. The sandwiches and wraps are generally less expensive than Pret-a-Manger.

Borough Market
Brief visit to Borough Market on a weekend.  Wanted to try Monmouth Coffee but it was extremely crowded.  Had some Spanish paella and also the Duck Confit sandwich.

Young Cheng Restaurant - London Chinatown
Very good value food here, though the place is rather cramped.  Regardless, we enjoy our meals here.

Marks and Spencer Cafe, High Street Kensington
Stopped here to get some coffee in the middle of shopping.  Very pleasant and hardly anybody when I was there.

Massive Crowds - Oxford Street, outside Hamley's
Huge crowds along Oxford Street, this was very close to Christmas.  Very crowded indeed, and for some reason they closed the roads.

Oxford Street, walking along
Just taking a walk along Oxford Street in December.

John Lewis Oxford Street Lego Architecture
John Lewis, Oxford Street.  Went there to check out some stuff and came across the Lego Architecture series.  Decided to make a video so that I could go home to compare prices.

London School of Economics - Walking Around
Walking around the London School of Economics.  Brings back fond memories.   The LSE is a very famous school for the social sciences.

University of Westminster, London
Took a walk and made a short video of the place.  The location of this University (which was a former Polytechnic) is great, so near Oxford Circus!

Premier Inn, Breakfast, Premier Inn West Quay Southampton
Premier Inn is the default place we stay at when we visit the UK.  Some videos I made.
Here is another video - walk from Premier Inn King's Cross to the King's Cross train station.

JD Wetherspoons Pub
We like this pub chain for the food and drink.  Good prices and decent food.  This video, I had lunch at the Goodman Field's Pub.

Hyde Park, Speaker's Corner, Horses!



Thanks for viewing.
