Hi, I'm an American who's going to be traveling to London and Wales next summer. What exactly do I need? I've never left my country so I'm not entirely sure on travel. I know I'll need a passport, an adapter for my charger, and to turn my USD into GBP. What else do I need to do?
Thanks.

What are you doing/ want to do?
Wales is great for trekking with really nice people. London can be the greatest place you'll visit or a cesspit hellhole
You don't need to adapt to much as you can find anything from America. Other than power outlets and driving it's pretty similar

I'm going to meet my friends that live in Wales. I'm flying into London, spending the day there, and will be in Wales the rest of the time. (1 week). Maybe sightsee, castles and such.
Hijaking this thread a little for a related question:
Anyone know a good book guide book for Scotland travel? I live here currently and am looking to begin my /trv/ career by checking out my doorstep since it's cheaper and easier than flying to another country and I haven't even seen my own country yet. Should I just pick up a lonely planet on Scotland?

Well if you're spending just a day than I would hit all the tourist traps make sure to check out the first-class museums (there are several)
>visit/ walk down Camden Lock
>little Venice
>kew garden
>hit the skygarden on the walkie-talkie
>soho/ westend if you like theatre and prostitution
>brick Lane/ Shoreditch for the hipster crowd
>walk everywhere, seriously London is a great city to get lost in
As for Wales I've never been in any cities so don't know much I do recommend some rambling/ trekking as the country is quite beautiful in a rugged sort of way maybe climb Snowden

Swansea's a good anchor in Wales, since the Gower Peninsula is nearby.
