▲▲▲▲▲▲▲ I don't suppose I'll be able to find these guys here.
As far as Neuschwanstein goes, I could have found out more, but the wife wanted to go there. I could have found out that a vital organ transplant was required for admission....it would not have mattered. Besides, I am American. We do everything the same way, including travel. Charge in with no idea of where we are going and no exit strategy. We're doing Canada next year the same way.

tate St Ives is rubbish, was there a few weeks ago, 4 galleries of random scribbles by Brian Wilson. Tate Liverpool or modern much better.

I don't know..... I regularly do the museums with my kids, they still love the NH, the Science and the V&A...... which are now all free to enter (improvement on my day)..... ......unlike the Louvre though, some of the most expensive food in the capital is served in Britains museums and tourist traps..... and without doubt the WORST service of any country I have visited!........ hmmmm maybe you have a point, I so don't want that to be true tho...... ![]() |

I think anyone coming to London is in for a disappointment. Consider yourself lucky if you escape without being mugged. This city is going down the sh*thole. |

The best way to see 'Le Louvre' is out of the main season on nocturnal (We & Fr up to 10PM) prepare a good music programm on your MP3 (any mind alterating substances are optional
![]() Under the Glass pyramide you have a shopping mall (including a Megastore) and some selfs which are among the cheapest places to get food in the center of Paris! I go quite often there to the Maroccan counter to have a 'couscous' or just a mint-tea...and speaking about mint-tea, one of my favourite places in Paris is 'The Mosque de Paris', it's beautiful and you have an inner garden where you can smoke a waterpipe and have mint-tea (or both) and it's right around the corner of a nice botanic garden 'Le Jardin Des Plantes' and a nice museum of natural History with stuffed mammouths etc. ...so can leave your kids in the museum and go smoke a waterpipe and drink a mint-tea (or both) and have optional one of these delicious 'loucoums'....
![]() BTW Rico, Foucault's Pendulum is not in the Louvre, there are two in Paris, one in the 'Pantheon' and the other in the 'Musée des Art Et Métiers' ...

well spotted, strictly speaking they are..... however, without the bike we have no way of getting to the tourist attractions...... so it's a chicken and an egg thing really, they go hand in hand....... ![]() |

HE HE HE!!!
I am 5'11" So I can pretty much mount anything that comes my way....... I searched kwaka UK this morning, ...... nothing going, the beloved said he had looked at the KLE500 and found it somewhat lacking...... although he didn't expand on that ..... We often ride down to avebury (about a 1/2 hour jaunt) when the kids are elsewhere, but would love something meatier to get to tourist attractions further afield..... We want to ride down to Poland to visit friends..... taking in some continental tourist attractions on the way. There are a few rental places in Germany/Holland etc and have thought about having a trip that way before we splurge...but to be honest we just can't afford another bike right now, we merely dream....... ![]() A bike is the BEST way to see the country...and something you can take off road is a MUST...... (ok you kings of the double entendre, pick the bones out of that little lot!!) |

UH OH PC -- just checked Kawasaki UK myself, and it looks like you CANNOT buy a KLR there (you'd likely have to go to the continent -- and maybe view some TOURIST ATTRACTIONS while there!).
You can, however, purchase this very interesting model (they aren't sold here, so I know nothing about them):
WHATEVER THE GOING![]() Model Year 2007 Adventure is where you find it. The KLE500 is designed to offer good all-round performance, great versatility and a dash of style. Urban tarmac jungle or unmade road, the updated and refreshed KLE500 is ready to take on the challenge. With a narrow chassis and wide bars this bike is manoeuvrable and lithe. The 498cm³ parallel twin water-cooled engine is tuned for rewarding low end power extending into a strong mid-range, ideal for tricky roads and city streets alike. The up to date upper cowl and Z1000 inspired headlamp and screen complement the new instruments, colours and graphics to bring the KLE500 bang up to date. Contemporary features also include three exhaust catalysers ensuring that the 8 valve DOHC motor runs clean as well as smooth. Sounds pretty sweet, to me, and I believe the price was just under 4000 Pounds. (Don't have that "pound" symbol on my 'puter!) I'd check it out! (A twin will be better on the highway, and make up for the missing 150cc of displacement. Plus, it's a six speed (KLR is a five speed).
Just the ticket for a trip to STONEHENGE, and other such TOURIST ATTRACTIONS....
