Welcome to London! We are glad that you are here, and to make your stay nice and comfortable, we would like to inform you about what you may find unusual in London. First, of course, it is that we drive on the left side of the road, not on the right as Europe and America do. You should be very careful and attentive when you cross the road and look first to the right and then to the left, not like in your home country. If you don't know how to get around in the city, ask the nearest policeman. They are very polite and always eager to help. There are no trams or trolleybuses in London, the main transportation is buses and the metro, we call it the Tube. When you get on a bus, you should pay the fare. There is a special conductor for that. London buses have two floors, we call them "doubledeckers". They are of different colours, and that will help you find the bus youneed. The London metro, or the Tube, is very convenient. It can get you to any place in the city, but it is a little too expensive. So, enjoy your stay in our capital.
