great trip report! thanks for sharing with us!
I just posted on the community board and UK community board asking for help/advice for my families first European trip I'm planning for 2012. We're most likely going to do London and Paris. I priced
ABD, but for 4 of us, ouch! I just can't justify spending that much.
On our own, we'll be doing a full week in London, then a full week in Paris. Your trip report is really inspiring me and getting me very excited!! Who knows, it may convince me to do ABD instead of on our own... looking forward to more!
