London’s calling louder than ever.  I can’t believe that only in a few short weeks we’ll be hitting the streets of London and then heading to Toronto.  I usually spend so much time overplanning our trips but this time I’ve practically left everything until the last minute.  (3+ weeks is last minute for me!)  The last time Ørjan and I were in London it was a short trip but it was definitely easy to get around only being two.  Now we’ve got the challenge of travelling with two little ones I guess this means we’re new again considering this is London we’re talking about.  I was very sour about London because it was never one of my choice-destinations but I suppose it can’t be all that bad.  At least this trip will give Ørjan an excuse to break out the new video camera I bought him for Christmas.  Now on to the list:

• purchase Visitor Oyster Cards
• plan day trip to the zoo
• pack the London Suitcase
• budget for shopping trips
• print and organize all maps
• call to confirm (i must triple confirm!) all reservations
• pack extra bag for the kids
• buy/pack memory cards
• research restaurants (we have some special dietary needs)
• map/organize all intineraries and scheduled events
• reserve all online ticket purchases
