Uk- Part 2

So I stopped at London.

London was pretty chilly the morning I landed. Around 8 degree Celsius, but it did get warmer by noon. Went to Buckingham Palace in the morning, watched the guards of honour, pretty cool if you ask me, but I wouldn't go for it the second time. Saw a sick horse puking from time to time, looks like it is in pain. =( However, it is obvious the horses are well fed and happy. Chilled in Green Park. Just like the scene from TV, green grass, people reading, dogs catching frisbee. =)

Met up with Lydia in the afternoon. Oxford Street. Had McD's. Fish Fillet, quite different from Malaysia's. Of course, shopping area!!! Topshop, Miss Selfridge blah blah.. all there. Due to luggage constraint, bought nothing. Na-da. Spent the afternoon there, then headed back to the room. After resting for an hour, Chinatown time! Met up with David and another senior, queued at Four Seasons to have the famous and yummy DUCKRICE!! It was really good.

Then we retired for the night.

On the second day ( YES just the second day), mum and I went to Windsor Castle, Eton College and Oxford. These places are beautiful. Will upload some pictures to illustrate, because words can't really do them justice. Even pictures. The whole atmosphere was so elitist and special. I soaked it in. Loved the places. Absolutely heart Oxford and the castle. Good places to go. Highly recommended.

Third day.

Woke up a bit later ( 7am) , went out. Visited Big Ben, House of Parliament, Westminster Abbey, London Bridge, Tower Bridge etc etc. Pretty places. Amazing architecture. I'm falling in love with the city!! Lunch in a local pub with Tze Ni, Sheng and some others. Food was mediocre. Just miss them. Had a minor incident, but thank God the people here are honest. We were walking on the street and mum recalling that I wanted to watch a musical, suggested that we go together! So Les Miserables it is :D It was really good. Moved me to tears. The casts are AMAZING. Great voices. Live orchestra. GOOOOOOOOD. Highlight of London for me. Best of all? We got a 50% off for the tickets. WHooohoo.But it is still GBP 26 per pax, definitely worth it. Went for duck rice again. hahahahah. :D
