I was hoping to make a "London Essentials" thread once I actually get tickets. Just to provide a list of things to think about for anyone travelling overseas, or things our England friends can help us with.
For Example:
Passport - Currently a 3-4 month wait on getting them issued
Cell phone Options - Is it cheaper to just buy a sim card or rent a hot spot when you get there, or use an international plan
Power Outlets - What type of converter will you need to bring with you
Transportation - What's the best for getting around the City or if you want to travel outside the city
Tourist must see's and things to avoid - What are the lesser known places and what might take you all day due to lines
Currency - Is it better to use a bank card or just get a bunch of cash once you are there (don't forget to let your bank know you are travelling)
Soccer Games - What sections to avoid, what to wear, kid friendly, best way to get tix?
