London
London has a lot to offer as a city. Many people in London, however, don't, because a little bit of humbleness (which they lack) can go a very long way, baby!

Quick Tips:

Take the city tour bus to cruise around town when you first arrive so that you know where to go and what you want to see in the coming days. Included in the bus ticket is a free boat cruise of the Thames, and take advantage of that, because there is an entirely different view of London from the river.

Best Way To Get Around:

Take the Tube to the city. Stay in the Piccadilly Circle area when in London, because it is practically at the center of everything: theatres, gay district, Chinatown, downtown, Thames, and all major sites.

Story/Tip

London Pride 2004
London Pride is surprisingly small compared with those in Paris and Berlin. The one in 2004 was the very FIRST OFFICIAL parade in London. In the past, it was only considered a "political event."
