It never gets old - I've done it 4 times now! (1993, 2006, 2011 and 2016)

Cool. Got to admit the London drivers have patience to put up with all the tourists every day - ha ha.

The last time I was there in August, we went on a late Sunday afternoon. It was raining just slightly and I was able to get a pic of only my friend walking across. There was one person at the side in the pic of me crossing. We were virtually the only 2 people around.

I got a picture of me walking across and even did the barefoot thing (it was summer). A nice young lady than took a picture of my family doing it for us. We returned the favor and got one for her and her boyfriend.

Done the crosswalk many times. But I've also been inside. I was lucky enough to be in London when they opened Abbey Road to the public for a mini-tour and presentation during the summer of 1983. My friends and I went to it twice.
There was a short tour and then led us all into Studio 2 for an audio/video presentation which included lots of Beatles outtakes (sounding incredible thanks to the studio speakers, of course; I wanted to go home and toss out my stereo 
). It was a treat to be inside the actual studio where those recordings were made. -

Yes! That's why we decided to go back for a second time, we couldn't let the opportunity go by.

Love going to Abbey Road, but as much as i love it outside it was unreal to get to spend 3 hours inside in 2005! We spent an hour in studio 2, then everyone went to studio 1 to watch "Backbeat" on a screen! I should have been in again a few years ago, but i was ill, so my sister went without me
To the talk thingy. You were allowed to take photos in that one - but not in the one i went to -

Thanks - she's still never shown me the pictures she took inside as she knows i was so gutted to not be going that i'd rather pretend she didn't go either
