The London trip I am planning to take on April 1, 2017 is my first official trip to Europe. I remember years ago I took a quiz about what is the city that is best for me, and the result was London. I don’t know much of this city, except from the game Monopoly, and the few movies shot there, but my love to it has been growing over the years for many reasons.
I am going to start this journal about my trip, from preparation till returning, and I hope you will enjoy it with me.
In preparation, I started reading the Biography of London, by Peter Ackroyd. I am also getting the map of london today from AAA to draw my general plan for visiting the city.
I also am going to watch a couple of movies shot in London, and a couple of documentaries to get me in the mode.
In London, I am meeting my dear friend, Walid Marmar, and a group of other friends and acquaintances.
I am excited about this trip that will be the first of many to Europe, and to a city from which everything I love in Art, music, literature, and theater have sprung.
Movies and documentaries I will watch shot in London:
