To be fair Mexico was only less boring by a smidge- l was TWO or THREE riding in another car other than w/ parents and we got lost from them! AND Canada was same age!
I was quite ill when we got there and the weather was terrible. (Rainy, overcast and cold)
We saw Big Ben *yawn* travelled on the underground *yawn* visited Windsor Castle - was ok but I found it creepy that there were graves that you walked on inside the church on the grounds.
There was also a cat on the grounds that I liked and it gave me the opportunity to recite '***** cat ***** cat' but aside from that I was BORED.
When we went to Buckinham Palace I stood outside and looked and looked - but I couldn't feel anything. I thought I would have some kind of emotional response. But nothing.
We also saw the squirrels in Hyde Park - that was AWESOME. I loved those little squirrels!!!
Every other country has been awesome and my best trip was my one this year to South Dakota! It ROCKED!!!
North Americans make the mistake of going to all the tourist sites and forget to live the real London.
Spend a Sunday afternoon in Covent Garden getting plastered by mid-day and watch the street artists. Go nuts in Camden lock, try every type of world food in Brixton market, see a west-end show, take a day trip to wacky Brighton, stroll along opulent South Kensington, hang out in Greenwich or Parliament hills, go to a warehouse party in Dalston, marvel at street art in Shoreditch, go during carnival in Notting Hill or at any other time club the night away in Farringdon or Angel.
Tourists are so predictably boooring.
PS: I haven't found any place I've been boring, the closest would be Atlanta, I was so looking forward to getting my crunk on but found it really sleepy for such a prominent US city. Did enjoy piedmont park though.

Yep only countries l have to rate!
So you're rating countries you have been to based on experiences when you were TWO or THREE?
One time I went to Moldova while still in utero. Hated it. Never went back.
