Last stop: A Beautiful Memorial
The last stop will take you to the Diana Memorial Fountain.
The information posted about this fountain was written so perfect, I could not have said it any better. With that said, I will quote how this fountain was built.
"The design aims to reflect Diana's life, water flows from the highest point in two directions as it cascades, swirls and bubbles before meeting in a calm pool at the bottom. The water is constantly being refreshed and is drawn from London's water table. The Memorial also symbolizes Diana's quality and openness. There are three bridges where you can cross the water and go right to the heart of the fountain." RoyalParks.org.
I hope you can understand why this fountain is so meaningful and absolutely worth visiting in my opinion. Knowing the beautiful person Diana was to the world, makes this an important and historical place to see. My favorite part about the this memorial, is the thought, and meaning behind it. They truly made the fountain to symbolize the person she was and THAT is worth visiting.

Next Stop: Let's wine and dine!
First of all, DO NOT under any circumstances, look at the prices. The Roof Gardens, is located above Kensington High Street in central London.
This high end, and sophisticated restaurant will give your taste buds an incredible experience. I have heard from a close friend, who toured the beautiful city of Westminster, that this restaurant was (in her words), "The most elegant dining I have ever experienced. The wine tasting tour before dinner was incredible. The atmosphere of the garden surrounding me made the experience that more amazing." I viewed the menu, photographs, and blogs. I am SOLD. If I ever get an opportunity to travel out of the country, I will make sure that my reservation is BOOKED! Take a look at the pictures, I will include the website for you to also take a look at. I think you will be amazed!
The Roof Gardens offers a different scene from the buzzing streets down below. It is located on the 6th & 7th floor and has been a unique venue for over 70 years.
If you are going for a night out, a private event, or just to dine, then enter the elevator and take it to the roof top. It offers entertainment, lounges, and majestic scenery, depending on the month.

FIRST STOP; Westminster, London UK
Westminster is one of the most visited cities in London. It's located in central London, and it has attracted visitors from all over for many reasons. My reason for visiting this city, would be to see the beautiful Buckingham Palace.
First of all, look at this place. Who wouldn't want to visit it? Looking at the Buckingham Palace reminds me of my childhood. As a little girl, being a princess was a dream I seemed to play over and over. I remember my mother telling me stories of a princess who stayed in that palace. Little did I know then that she was always referring to the beautiful Princess Diana. As I grew up, I learned to admire, the woman she was. Not just because she was a princess, ( the role I always had to play) but also because she helped people, ( another role I hoped to be able to do as I grew older). For me this would have to be the first place I visit. Its history and my fond memories as a princess would be a magical experience for me.

Before we start our tour...
Although I've never been to London, I can tell you a few reasons why I would visit. First and foremost London is a large city filled with many attractions, businesses, and is the financial heart of the United Kingdom. I feel that visiting London will give me a wide variety of different traditions, old and new. As you travel with me I hope to give you enough reason to visit this beautiful country yourself.
