Museen in London & entspannen in Cornwell

About the destination: Of all European capitals, London lives deepest in the imagination of travelers. We absorb London before we know it exists and when we finally approach the city, it does not disappoint. There are the red double-deckers, the bobbies and impassive guards at Buckingham, Westminster Abbey, and the notes of Big Ben, sounding familiar, as we have heard them before. We see these things with satisfaction. Yet there is much to surprise. London is not quaint. London is not a museum, though you could spend all of your time going from one to the next. It is a booming, urban sprawl, with traffic snarls, shops, and an astonishing international population. Visit the many monuments with nearly a millennium's worth of history, from the grave of Chaucer to the pub where the captain of the Mayflower drank to Piccadilly Circus, one of London’s most photographed sights. But don’t miss contemporary London, with its intensely active theatres, international cuisine, political demonstrations, the latest in music and fashion, punks and peers, and everyone in between. In 1777, writer Samuel Johnson said when a man is tired of London, he is tired of life, and the phrase is still true. There's something different to experience every day in London.

About the destination: Falmouth (in Cornish language: Aberfal) is a city and seaport at the mouth of the Fal River, on the south coast of Cornwall, in England. It has a population, according to the 2001 census of 20,775 inhabitants. It was originally called Peny-cwm-ciuc, which became 'Pennycomequick' (Penny come soon). Falmouth is considered famous for its remarkable harbor. Together with Carrick Roads, it forms the largest natural harbor in Western Europe and the third in the world. It is also famous for being the start or end of several record trips around the world, such as those of Sir Francis Chichester and Ellen MacArthur. It was also the port in which on June 5, 1808, the Asturian embassy disembarked to King George III, after declaring the Principality of Asturias the war against Napoleon.
