Despite the weak dollar, there are many perks to spending quality time in London, such as the numerous free activities. I mentioned in an earlier blog about free entrance to all Museums, unless one wants to visit a special exhibit. Well, as another weekend approaches now is a good time to elaborate on some other free venues.
The past two and half weeks have afforded the opportunity to listen to free music, celebrate American culture (July 4), and visit some well-known cathedrals. This week is no different. In various parks individuals will have the opportunity to participate in dance lessons, hear more music, and even do some cultural taste-testing, all at no charge. This weekend is the Big Dance in Trafalgar Square and the Rise Against Racism celebration in Finsbury park. Both events seem promising and with the number of people in London, not to mention tourist, will probably be crowded. The National Theatre has an area titled "Watch this Space" on a green turf that offers unique yet pleasurable event themes. There will also be a party behind the Tate Modern that will offer a break dancing exhibition, a Japanese drum exhibition, a fashion show, a doodle wall and more. Then of course there is people watching.
Despite cultural differences, free is one word where translation is universal.
