London 雾都漫步And I hope you've had as much fun as I've had.
London is a fine finale for any European adventure.
I've been visiting her for years and our relationship is thriving 1.
People tell me, "You know, you've got a great job."
And you know something, I think they are right.
Travel is good living.
It's packing each day with people and lifelong memories.
Like here in London, the walking tours, Greenwich, the pubs 2, the Tower and the day trip to Salisbury.
This is the wrap-up of our grand circle tour.
Before London we did Paris, Switzerland, Rome and Northern Italy, Bavaria and the Romantic Road, the Rhine, and back where we started in Amsterdam.
It's been a great trip.
And as we've left the beaten path and met the other cultures, I'd like to think that we've grown to see yourselves, not just as citizens of a particular nation, but as citizens of an ever smaller and precious planet 3.
And I think when we've done that we are more likely to find a way to keep it at peace, and to keep it as green and blue and livable as it's meant to be.
I hope we'll share another trip soon.
And till then. I'm Rick Steves wishing you happy travels.
