London

Day 1 (13.03.2010)

We left the hotel at 9am almost everyday. The plan for today was to take the London City bus tour. We bought a 3-days passes.

We took a metro from King Cross station to London Bridge station. From there we walked through the Queen's walk to the London bridge. Station mmg london bridge tapi london bridge nya nun jauh di sana. takpe la, since we arrived quite early. We took a brisk walk. The best thing of reaching at the tourist's spots early is to be able to take pictures without anybody else.

Then walked across the bridge to Tower of London. Then, bought of Hop On Hop Off bus tour ticket from the Original Bus Tour personnel at the tour bus stop. I think, it is best to take this tour if you have limited time and yet you want to explore London. We hop off at Westminster Pier to continue with our River Thames cruise (inclusive of the 24pound tour fare). We took of at Greenwich Pier. Went to the Greenwich Royal Observatory. Then, headed back to King Cross via DLR train.

Eh, tak berbintik pulak muka hari ni. Good...good.


Day 2 (14.03.2010)

In the morning, we went to Camden Lock. It's a market that sell almost everything. Handbags. souvenirs, dresses, painting, antiques or even HEMP!!I was so tempted to try the chinese mixed rice, but it was only 10am and we need to go to Trafalgar Square before the St Patrick's Day parade starts.

When we entered the train heading to Leicester Square, there were people wearing greens. How nice! We anak beranak pulak takda pakaian yang green. So, we lepak dkt tepi je la, tgk the parade. Milan was sleeping in her stroller.

When the parade was over, we went to the Chinatown. Sebab.....mommy nak pegi Jen's cafe, nak minum pearl tea. Had our lunch there. From there we went to Oxford Street. Tak shopping apa pun. Macam tak ada mood nak shopping ( i was suprised myself!).

From there, we went to take Milan to see the 'itik2' and pigeons at Hyde Park sampailah hari gelap.


Day 3 (15.03.2010)

The tour guide on the bus told us that there will be changing of guards at Buckingham Palace today, at 11am. We then took the metro to Hyde Park Corner station and walked through the Marble Arch then passed by Green Park on our left, towards Buckingham Palace. There were so many tourists. Nak ambik gambar pun susah. Yang Milan pulak sibuk nak beramah mesra dgn orang2 dekat that area. Semua orang dia nak say "hi".

Lepas tengok change of guards, we went to have our lunch at St James Park, sambil bersidai. Thanked God the weather was superb that day. Patutlah mat2 saleh suka bersidai. It is like a pure bliss to sit under the sun in such a cold temperature. From there, we went to St Paul's Cathedral. The most beautiful building in London, to me la. From St Paul's Cathedral we went to British Museum, before headed back to the hotel.

Tomorrow, we shall be breathing the parisian air.





Penat sangat sebab i dukund Milan most of the time. Kdg2 she gets too cold and needs heat. Stroller dia pulak yang kureng sesuai utk London's cold weather. Sometimes, the metro station takde escalator or elevator, so i had tj carry her up and down the staircases.
