Hi,
After my study abroad trip in Spain this summer for two months, me and my girlfriend want to travel around Europe a bit. We will be in London for three days before leaving back for the States. We are both 20 years old, love food, are in good shape and enjoy new experiences.
In London we would like to spend at least a day seeing the normal tourist sites, so i am curious what is the best way for the two of us to do that? Also being college students price could become an issue.
We would also like to do some unique things to fully experience London but I'm not sure what those would be if you have any good ideas.
We would love to hear all suggestions and advice to help us try to create a great trip.
Thanks,
Adam and Emily

You need to read some guide books - since we have no idea what your interests are. Look at the Let's Go Student Guide and the Thorn Tree section of the Lonely Planet web site.
"In London we would like to spend at least a day seeing the normal tourist sites,"
The 'normal' tourist sites would take weeks. In one day you could visit 2 or 3 of the major sites. Which 2 or 3 - who knows? What sorts of things do you want to see?
"We would also like to do some unique things to fully experience London"
Not quite sure what that means. London is the largest city in Western Europe. Can't be 'fully experienced' in a lifetime. I agree, maybe get a guidebook and read up on some of the sites/things to do and then come back and ask for opinions.
