I printed out a few of the "spider maps" for several locations. These will show all the routes emanating from one point. Buses come every 5-10 minutes on most routes, they are buggy/wheelchair accessible, they constantly announce where you are going and the name of the next stop. As central London has fewer private cars on the road these days the buses seemed to move fairly quickly - in any case as a tourist you are not usually in a rush. You get to see lots of things you might otherwise miss (especially from the upper deck), and you avoid the heat and long-distance undergroung trudging of the Tube.

I went there for a birthday party years ago -- it's definitely kid-friendly because they have a whole downstairs soft-play section and climbing gym. I wasn't too impressed with their food (it was generic kid food and not very good), but it was a fun place to have a birthday party. Hi Sarah,

I heard that it has closed down, but I was wondering what the response was in Central London? Was it well-received? Any info would help. Thank you has anyone heard of a place called blue kangaroo?

As a teacher, I was hoping to find a good bookstore (not to mention one with a train station in the middle!) And with a daughter who thinks pirates are just the greatest, I look forward to visitng the Princess Diana Memorial Playground. Although I'm a little apprehensive about the move (coming from Seattle), knowing/reading about other moms who "did it" calms my nerves just enough.
