Christmas eve is sublimely magical in London. Although this year it rained a lot, the warm-ish weather (as in"not freezing") and the reflections of the dazzling festive lights made our traditional Christmas ever stroll around central London a superb, visually-enchanting adventure. Recommended Christmas lights route: the Strand (start in Trafalgar Square/Charing Cross Station, then walk towards Covent Garden, Leicester Square, China Town, and end at Picadilly Circus. Enjoy & Merry Christmas!
