ok so i will skip hong kong for now even though that was my first stop however it was really a over night one day stop over so i shall blog about hong kong in the end...
early morning i arrive into london after a long 13 hour flight ... its only 6.30am and the sun is out burning my eyes ... i've always heard that london was always dull and rainy but it was so the opposite warm and extra sunny apparently this was the first time in a long time that the weather has been this nice...
first stop was of course my sisters place and omg i love her apartment its so spacious and comfortable ... makes me want my own place! Parents met their future son-in-laws haha oh the thought...anyways i think my parents like them and if they didn't you wouldn't be able to tell! so we spent the morning at her place before heading out doing the typical tourist activities.
so of course that meant a visiting BUCKINGHAM PALACE, BIG BEN, LONDON EYE, TRAFALGAR SQUARE & OXFORD CIRCUS ... lets just say that it wasn't fun walking around in the 33 degrees heat and catching the non air-conditioned tubes!!! the heat in those tubes are truly ridiculous no ventilation whatsoever ...
London is a nice city, i love all the historical buildings especially around oxford circus where all the old buildings are used as retail stores, it looks amazing i felt like i was in a european city within a city (errmmmm i dont know what i'm talking about) let's just say the atmosphere was great...and i'll shut up now! hehe
London-ers taking advantage of the sunny day at a local park ... this is their version of a beach you can hire deck chairs and everything haha
This was by the park near Buckingham Palace I have no idea if it has a name i'm not a very devoted tourist!
Buckingham Palace
Buckingham Soldier, I wish he was closer i really wanted to test if he really doesn't budge if you try to annoy him!
Me in front of some statue ... i really should have made an attempt to find out if that statue had a name if you know please let me know!!!
My sisters had the responsibility of guiding us around london, after having lived there for about 2-3 yrs now they were using a tourist map! tsk tsk
I think these red phone booths all over london are a tourist attraction themselves ... i totally love them! i think of superman when i see these booths!
"the big ben" and some random dude haha he looks so uncomfortable being caught in this photo op.
Me + Big Ben
London Eye it apparently takes about 30 minutes to do one entire round so i took a pass on that...
ok i had no intentions on taking a piccy of this policeman he just happened to get in my way during a photo session thought i'd post him up anyway...i like his hat hehe
this was just a random pic i took whilst walking around London i just really liked the historical buildings
