Spitalfields is vibrant and 10mins walk from the flat. The best day to go is Sunday when all the market traders and fashionistas have their stalls set up: you can often get quirky London memorablia.

You can't visit London without visiting the Tower! Check out the beefeaters in their red coats that guard the Tower, and the ravens which protect it. The Crown Jewels are also worth a look!

It's nice and picturesque with great views over Tower Bridge and the Thames - though on the North side in St. Katharine Docks, we get the sun so I prefer the bars on the North side.
