Ah the Beatles book.. that was always something I wanted to do as a kid, go to England and check out those places. As an adult, it still seems interesting, but not as interesting as other architectural and historical locations.
Oh my goodness, I totally expected to see about a zillion posts of people adding to the list of “random wonderful things seen on the web.” To get this ball rolling I will plug http://www.instructables.com travel section.

Instructables is a website dedicated to “showing and twlling” and you will find lots of practical travel tips!
Ahhh! I have several friends who are huge Beatle fans, and would love to tour their London. Thanks so much for the link! -r
