Day 1 and Day 2


Arrived in London 2 days ago..Weather has been pretty okay..no rain but it's still quite cold..especially at night..where the cold wind just blows right smack into your face..the above pic was taken from the plane upon landing.After comparing it to Asian countries such as Taiwan and Hong Kong where everything just seems so congested..London's territoty seems to be arranged pretty neat and yes..there are a lot of parks..overall..London is a good country to live in..after you retire..coz almost all shops closes at 8 p.m.


Went to Chinatown on the first night for dinner..food was okayla..the oriental taste has changed
to fit the Briton's taste..but it was quite expensive lor..after doing the conversion..ordered 4 dishes and the bill came up to 51 pounds which is like equivalent to RM 350..and no..none of
the dishes were special..just ordinary chinese food..and one Coke bottle is the same price in Malaysia..1.20..but only in pounds..so one bottle of coke is around rm 9.. but nvm la..expected already..hehe..then when walking around..I came to see Daniel Radcliffe's large poster and the
theatre where his place is to be held..wanted to go and watch but the tickets were super expensive..so cancelled the plan..



*the place where the Harry Potter premiere was held*





The next day, we went to St Paul's Cathedral..quite a tourist attraction..nice place to take photos and my pics will be even better if the sun wasn't that bright..I didn't enter the cathedral coz they charge an admission fee..I think around 10 pounds..and there were 5 of us..if one person okay la...but 5 ppl be around rm 350..so..continued our journey to Oxford circus and Regent street where it is a shopping place..so walk around and I bought a suit for 50 pounds at Next..felt tired so went to Selfridge food hall to eat lunch...the pie is super delicious man!Way better than Malaysia pie and the mash potatoes is sooo goood..and I couldn't finish the food coz the portion was so big.

*Looks like that the pigeons here are having a good life*


Then later at night we went to Tower Bridge..the view there is so nice but the it was quite windy there..I had to wear 3 layer of thick clothes and a windbreaker.I didn't camwhore there coz the wind was blowing my hair and my hair became quite messy..the pics will speak for themselves.
