When we went to the UK on our honeymoon, we had a couple of days in London, and honestly, although I'm a city boy, I preferred the countryside...particularly the distillery tours in Scotland. Edinborough was easier to get around than London; of course it's smaller, and you shouldn't miss the Tower and the crown jewels or Madame Tussaud's, but I'm really glad I only spent a couple of days there. Hiking across the Menai suspension bridge, that was spectacular. And long, but it was nothing compared to trying to pronounce the name of the town on the other side, Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch. :D
