Sennight

Anfranctuosity------> A channel full of windings and turnings. I have a new old friend. Sounds cool huh.

Chap 3: Big bus, and the London eye

Hi again. So there was one day where we went to the city center(probably because it was the only place that you could actually have good food)

Ladies and gents, I present to you, Tralfagar Square


Yeah this is pretty mucch Tralfagar Square and the National Gallery.

Talllll tower. Doesn't look that majestic with all the dark theatening clouds surrounding it though.

Just like in the movies!!!!!!Flocks of pigeons on the floor for people to chase!!! Especialy for lovely couples or people training for a marathon who usually ends their training up a flight of stairs to a museum or something.


Me jakuning among the pigeons. I was actually trying to scare them off while marvelling at all the flying KFC prodegies without getting pooped on.

A kid doing a better job than me.

That was fun. Anyway, the next day we decided to go on a local tour called the Big Bus, which took tours around London. Basically you get to choose to sit on top of a big bus(duh!) and you travel around London listening to commentary on given earphones on the history of whatever you're seeing. So about 9 in the morning we were on our merry way to... well around London la. After lots of sightseeing, we ended up getting off the bus at Big Ben, which kononnya was the most accurate clock in the world and everyone should fix their watches to the same time as it.

Yes, Starbucks IS that old. I'm serious, that shop has been there for ages.

Bet you'd never ever ever see this in Malaysia.


Big, pointy, oldddd church. I hate funbling with my camera in the cold.

My brother was amused by this.

Big Ben. What's the time, everyone?

Just across the river from Big Ben is the London Eye. Now from the outside(very very far away) you'd actually find out what it looks like this year coz Malaysia's building one. So you get on one of these

And you take a really, really, really slow ride to the top and down.
Cooladaneh.
You only get this kinda view in the movies, where the hero takes the heroine on a magical ride on the London Eye and kisses her.
While we have KLIA as the tallest man-made structure in our country, Londond has this. It's some communication tower, but I'm absolutely intrigued by the design .Looks like some giants just played UNO stacko with a random building from far haha.

Btw they take ur picture can you believe that? at the end of the ride anyway.

That's all I guess, life can't be THAT colourful.
