There are plenty to be had but tracking around London can sometimes mean gaps between toilets (or needing to use not so nice ones).<br /><br />When I saw a nice one I used it. As a back up plan-there is always a bathroom at Starbucks and you can locate them on your smart phone.<br /><br />also-you can get a sim for you US cellphone at carphone warehouse. If your phone is sim-locked you can go get it unlocked at any shop along tottenham court road. It will cost you $25-$30 pounds but much cheaper than roaming.<br /><br />xxxooo,,,the password says 'cation' :) I hope you have a great one!!Tinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16965135571189867376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22446690464444325.post-73429877426948907322012-01-23T14:05:56.892-05:002012-01-23T14:05:56.892-05:00The coffee shop culture has EXPLODED over here and...The coffee shop culture has EXPLODED over here and there is a starbucks, costa, coffee republic, cafe uno on every other corner. <br /><br />Most restaurants and large stores will let you use the bathroom if you ask nicely. All the tourist attractions and shopping centres have public bathrooms somewhere. Have you picked out where you want to go yet?Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01899213275796695472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22446690464444325.post-19486010785224925752012-01-23T13:54:10.975-05:002012-01-23T13:54:10.975-05:00London has lots and lots of fancy wash closets tha...London has lots and lots of fancy wash closets that you can play in for a few quarters.

I love travelling so I was worried if this would hinder my love. First trip is in April and then another flight in May. I am hoping as good a luck you as did.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04156156321472035894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22446690464444325.post-53094955167152380352012-01-23T10:59:24.513-05:002012-01-23T10:59:24.513-05:00All valid concerns.

My biggest travel worry at the moment is what will happen if I have a band problem in the middle of the Alaskan back country, hours and hours and hours from the nearest medical facility. Or if the cold/elevation screw with me to slam my band shut so I can't eat or drink anything - again hours and hours away from help. I'll be talking to my band nurse about this tonight and will post about it soon.Stephanie M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/17389046478307990176noreply@blogger.com
