From June 6th to 13th, I will be in London, Paris and Normandy. Yes this is one of those guided tours, but this is our first time to these two cities and battlefield so cut me some slack lol. Beside, the tour company does give us some time off to do whatever we want. One of the things that I do want to do is not only visit the Tower of London during the daytime, but to also take a Ghost Tour. I've been taking ghost tours to everywhere I visit, Charleston, Wilmington, The Winchester House etc. Anyways, while reasearching ghost tours for the Tower of London, I did come up on "Richard Jones' London Walk" and I was just wondering if it's a good organization to do this with or if there's a better one. Thanks for your help! :D

I'm pretty sure it's true. ;) I've had some friends come back from there and say that it's kinda fun and that there's lots of historic stuff to see.

Don't dare go to the Philipines, the ghosts there are somewhat mean and phycotic. Imagine me as a floating invincible form during one of my angry mood swings or one of my sugar high moods but worse and you'll get what I mean. :eek:

Heh. I doubt his plane is going to be going from New York to London, by way of Manila. :p

Just a tip for the road if he ever chooses to visit the most haunted islands in the world any time in the future. He's interested in this ghost stuff so since it was slightly on topic I thought I'd tell. At least the European ghosts are nicer I'd imagine.

Well I thought about coming to the Philippines, for the women of course. :D

Hey, Filipinas are beautiful, sue me.

Ah, okay. :p

Also, I think there's some haunted castle in England, where some kids who were heirs to the throne of England were killed by their uncle, or something. I remember hearing about it in history class. Sad stuff. :(

I'd recommend the London Dungeon (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/London_Dungeon)... Not a tour as such, but well worth a visit.

The Tower of London was the location, yes. The princes in queston were supposedly these (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Princes_in_the_Tower).

Yes, everyone here lives in castles......:D:D

Europe is like most places.....less interesting if you live there but really nice if you only visit the good places to see.
