Travel Plans v0.5

In keeping with the latest developments for my upcoming trip, I've added on the coach travel between London (Victoria Coach Station) and Mansfield/Nottinghamshire where my cousin has agreed to pick me up from.

It also turns out that my Godmother's family in London are quite eager to show me a good time which is totally awesome as well...

Google Maps is a fascinating tool - I can check out the StreetView photos and get a virtual tour of all the travel routes I'll be taking... however, I'm resisting doing this too much as it will spoil the fun. Google Maps has taught me this evening that Hyde Park is pretty much in between the Victoria Coach Station and Bayswater where the Umi Hotel is for checking in on Tuesday 08/09.

One of the last unknowns in this whole trip still remains my first few days in London... Part of the challenge is where and who to stay with... meeting up with friends and getting in the sights - I will only have three whole days...

Sights I hope to see/visit in London include:
1. London Eye
2. Hyde Park
3. Buckingham Palace
4. Madam Tussaud's
5. a matinee show at Westend
6. London Tower

Somehow I don't think I can cover all of that in three whole days - although I will have one day from the afternoon of 23/09 thru evening of 24/09...
