The English invented and developed the world's earliest railways. In 1901, Hornby became the first maker of model railways. The British love of train also gave birth to Thomas the Tank Engine, originally in books in 1946, then on TV from 1984 onwards.

The roads - almost always- have markings that help you remember to stay on the left. For example, when approaching a T-junction, the left side of the road has broken double white lines and a triangle.
These markings also help you to remember to stop and yield to the traffic coming from your right. Once clear to cross, you cross on the opposite side of the road. You might find it a challenge at first, but you will quickly get used to it.

There you can feel the peace...
It was so much nature in it, even if it is not the biggest or the most representative park for London, but one of the oldest- from XVI th century.
Probably the special light I've been lucky to see that day, made it so special for me.
Anyway, next time I'll just run back there to see if is everything the unchanged... the same as it was in the XIX century after the face-lift done by John Nash

Want to fit in with the locals in the UK? If so, find yourself a pub and stop in for a drink. A pint of ale with your mates is a great way to become an official Londoner.
Where can you find a pub? Just open your eyes while walking around and you'll find them everywhere. Just look for the cool named businesses.

My favorite thing about traveling is to get a glimpse of the vie quotidienne of whatever city I'm visiting which is why I got such a kick out of the Evening Standard. Given to evening commuters, it's left all over the backs of the tube seats so you always have access to one. I have no idea why but I loved the idea of these papers changing hands over the course of an evening. Something very charming about the idea of an elderly lady reading it, leaving it for a banker to pick up and leave for a teenager, etc. etc. I think I also loved it because while I was there every last page of every last paper was reserved for a story about the Royal Wedding and what could be better than that.
Interesting side note: Anna Wintour's father was the paper's editor in the 70s.

If you are hopping on an escalator and don't intend to walk down or up as the case may be, be sure to get over to the right to allow those folks who do want to walk or are in a hurry to get past you. This is especially important at tube stations which often have mile long escalators and someone desperately dashing for the next train
