Ok..let's continue my journey in London..it was the 2nd day
we woke up at 9.30am to get ourselves prepare
suddenly, the fire alarm rang..0=
and we were force to leave the building immediately
 |
| everyone in pyjamas standing along the street..haha |
 |
| the hostel |
 |
| The tourists were mingling with their pj..haha |
after 30mins of investigation, they come to a conclusion that it was a fake fire report
=.=
anyway, it caused a little delay for our trip..but it's ok..
we are bagpackers, so we still have time =)
taking metro as usual hehe..
 |
| London metro- Underground |
 |
| King's Cross station, the building behind it is beautiful |
 |
| St. Paul's Cathedral- the cathedral where Prince Charles and Princess Diana had their wedding |
 |
| the flowers outside the church. isn't they beautiful? |
After that, we went to Borough Market..one of my favorite attractions among all.
It is a food market which you can get some local or european food..and some groceries too
 |
| See! the map is so cute! |
 |
| groceries store |
 |
| Pretty Sunflower |
 |
| More flowers..<3 td="td"> |
 |
| Pork Pie..The English love pie..me and Yun tried the most famous pie..but unfortunately, both of us dislike it because it is a cold pie=.=.. |
 |
| German Sausage..anyone? |
Racqlette!! my favorite food in the market! and I had been craving it for a long time when I am in Msia..Luckily I found the same cheese in Pyramid Cold Storage..hehe..=D
 |
| First, they melt the cheese with this instrument. |
 |
| Then, remove the melted cheese from the huge cheese |
 |
| Serve it with potatoes and pickles =D |
 |
| I was melted! |
 |
| Look at my happy and excited face! |
More food in the market..basically is a european market?? due to the variety of european food choices?
but ya, it used to be a traditional market way back in few centuries ago..
 |
| Something like Risotto? |
 |
| Sweet treat! |
After getting our brunch for the market, we went to a park near London Tower to meet my friend ShuLing!
Havent seen her for a long time and I really miss her.
ohh ya, a lot of people especially we malaysian will always hope to see the London Bridge in London as there is a song that we used to sing in our childhood. "London Bridge is falling down..."
Ya, but in fact after the investigation, there is no such thing T.T...there is a place called London Bridge, which is next to Tower Bridge, But there there no Bridge called London..Ok..it's getting a bit confuse..in sum, London Bridge is a place and the Tower Bridge is a Bridge and both of them are beside each other..
Alright, back to my journey..
 |
| Tada..here is the place that we picnic! Isnt it is great? We got to see the tower while eating our food from the market =D |
 |
| Our food from the market- 2 pies and some pastry..and some cherry =) |
 |
| Haha so relax! I love to sit on the grass when I am in Europe..sometimes, I even wanted to sleep on it! It is so soft! and it's clean? haha |
 |
| Even the baby enjoy picnic at here too =) |
 |
| More kids in the park =) |
After finished our lunch, we proceed our journey by crossing the Tower Bridge. =)
 |
| Me and Shuling =) |
 |
| Me and Yun |
 |
| Solo w/ the bridge..lol |
Then, we went to the London 2012 Olympic Park site =)
 |
| So colorful |
 |
| The Swimming Center |
 |
| Us and the main olympic site..it seems like 20% unfinished even though it is 2 months b4 the event started.. |
 |
| The shopping center near the Park |
 |
| The mascot.. |
 |
| we did walk around in the mall |
 |
| The bridge that connect the John Lewis Mall to another mall |
 |
| Railway that under the bridge |
After visited the Park and some shopping in the mall, it already 6pm ++ and Shuling had to head back to her house before the sunset..ya it is safer as she travelled alone..
Then, we headed back to London city to meet up with Yun's Friend- Chester.
We are from the same high school and we didn't have a chance to know each other until the trip. =)
He brought us to a chinese restaurant to celebrate Yun's Birthday!
Then, we went to another park that near his school..there were lots of Malaysian too!
 |
| Swan |
 |
| Good poser! |
Then, we headed to the famous and prestigious Imperial College London
 |
| Chester told us that this is the hall that the student have their graduation day if I am not mistaken.. |
 |
| Royal College of Music, which next to ICL |
 |
| The smart ppl..haha |
 |
| ICL |
 |
| ICL |
It took us like 3-4 hours to do everything that I described above which it's about 3 hours before the subway close, we then decided to take a short walk @ I forgot the name -.-..and look at the night view of London (Part of it)
 |
| The view from where we sat |
 |
| London Eye and Big Ben - Saw this when we were crossing a bridge..omg..so many bridge in London..lol |
It was a relaxing night..We sat on a bench and chat for a long time..Girls talk..shh..lol
Then, we had to rush back before the subway close..
 |
| In the tunnel |
 |
| In the subway..yeah, it was almost midnight, and you can see everyone is in their party mood..holding their own beer and drinking in the subway |
 |
| When we got back, there was a banquet of flower on her bed! <3 sweet="sweet" td="td"> |
