New London feature added - Melita House
Added new feature and photos to the new Destination UK Guide. This was
where we stayed at when we first arrived in London. The first two nights
we stayed up late walking the streets of London till 2 a.m. until the
jetlag wore off. For an historical perspective, listen to the link for
Trafalgar Square, an old WWII report by Edward R. Murrow. More features
to be coming soon. - Carl

Welcome to my new blog for Southpoint. With the ongoing weblog, I plan
to keep everyone updated on our destination features, unique places to
visit, and specials for the traveler.
We have been working on adding new features from our extended London trip this
month, which will comprise our new Destination UK Guide. After going
through 1,400 images, we about have photos ready. London was quite a
place.
The sights, smells and sounds.
The busy-ness of it all
amongst so much history. Amazing that so much has survived from the
William the Conqueror period and before. Someone could spend weeks in
the museums alone and still not see everything.
From all the times we rode on the Underground, we were dreaming of hearing the
announcer boom out "Mind the Gap".
The weather was surprisingly sunny. Everyone always hears of the dreariness of
it all, the rain, but most of what we saw was the opposite.
