Idling around in London, with Maryann.... (be patient, wait on for the slow loading)
Covent
Garden..... This's a great place to hang out with friends or even to shop. Look at the Mango (brandname clothing) paperbag! Haha, yup, i love their stuff but unfortunately they dont have any store in the States. What a bummer! Oh yeaha, that's Maryann sitting by me on the floor in the middle of no where. Yeah, we were really tired and figured that we should just sit down and rest for awhile. |
Very "London"..... Hmm, I cant really tell you exactly why i love the double decker buses and the red telephone box so much. To me, they seem to be very "londonish", doncha think so? Oh, oh and the black cab too! I think they look very classical. |
Trafalgar Square... Here's another one with Maryann at the square. Oh yeah, this is a great park for kids to run about or to feed the birds but i dont think it is advisable to be immobile? Gosh, i was so afraid that the birds would come poop on me if i sit for too long. Who knows that they might mistaken me for a statue! |
I like this pic. a lot. I
guess that's because of the sun ray. I kinda look angelic rite? Hahaha... Another thing i enjoyed a lot bout Trafalgar Square was the therapeutic sound of the water running in those fountains. They did amazing things to my emotion! Haha... At the background, that's the National Art Gallery, I think. Is that right Maryann? Gosh, i dont remember details!! Bah! |
Gloomy
London.... One word describes the weather of London best : Depressing!! (Oops, no offence) But that's the truth, aint it? It's always gloomy...or at least for most of the time through the year. Here's one with my cousin, Kathy. She has been living in London ever since i was a lil' kid. Oh yah, this was taken by Westminster Cathedral and the Big Ben (which was cut off in this pic. It's too tall!) |
Ermm....i think this was the
other side of Buckingham Palace? Hmm, i have no idea now. Oh you know how it is like rite? Travelling too much and by the time the pics. are out, you had no idea where that was? Hmm, that's me at least. Esp. this London trip which was one of my spontaneous, unplanned and "trying-to-get-rid-of-my-boredom" trips. |
Horsey! Hey, i took this pic. not because of the okay looking guard but of the horse! Oh yah, i love horses!! And man, i pity that horse - gotta be standing still at the gate (of the House of the Parliament, I think) the whole day! What a boring job! |
Piccadilly
Circle... Okie I remember this place. It's Piccadilly Circle! Yeah, i kinda like the idea where they have all these old and nice fountains all over the city. Kinda cool doncha think? Oooh, the sound of water! NICE!! |
The Teddy Bear
Store... From what I was told, this's the original teddy bear store in UK. Oh by the way, this was taken near the Bath Abbey in Bath (a small town). Oh yah, that's silly Maryann again! Haha... |
The Roman
Bath.... Yup, we drove about an hour from London to come see this bath! Haha...kinda silly huh? But hey it's kinda cool you know...esp. if you like Roman architecture and stories. Oh by the way, Bath is the birth place of Jane Austen. |
Those silly
stones!! Oh yah, we finally made it to Stonehenge after hours of figuring out where they're located! To make things worse we had to drive really fast, trying to get there before sunset. And yup, we made it before the sun but guess what? The park was closed :( We were about 10 min. late and so, we had to see the stones from behind the fences. Now this pic. was digitally edited, we see no fence now! *bleh* |
