Preparing to leave London


With only 6 months left in London, my wife and I decided to put to use one of the first gifts we received after we told our family we'd be moving to London (two years ago!). My grandparents gave us the 'City Walks London: 50 Adventures on Foot'. We haven't used them yet, so we decided to see if we can get all 50 walks finished by the time we leave.

Each walk is outlined on its own individual card, one side with a map and the other side with a detailed description of what's on the walk (points of interests, history, restaurants, etc). Looking through the cards, we decided that we've already completed 16 of the walks, so that leaves 34 to do in 6 months, or about 6 per month. However, before we leave we've already planned around 5 weeks of travel, so I'm guessing we'll need to complete closer to 8 p/month to be successful. Should be a blast!
