Was in England for a week. Didn't see much of it...a few hours in Stratford--very pretty there. I don't remember much rain but it was chilly. Hated the food. Couldn't wait to get home. It has been my only trip off the north American continent.
Have been to London when it rained lots. Then I've been there when it was nice and sunny! Didn't realize how much training the taxi drivers have. Wow! Didn't know how many streets are there either. They spend 4 years in training and have 26, 000 streets - told to us by one driver.
