From London

I am still in London while I wrote my latest entry. Yes, this is another long awaited entry by your honour. haha. Was too busy with many ongoing stuff and its time to clear some backlog from blog. Well, I am away from home, two weeks for a deserved break. Remember I was working very hard last mth. This is the mth I am rewarding myself.

This is the second time I am here in UK. The first time was in June 2002, exactly 9 years ago. That time I was with Hao, this time I am with Eric. Same place but different pple. Well, the last time I was only in London and Portsmouth. This time I travelled from the Edinburgh till London.

7 June
Departed from Changi Terminal 1. There was a delay on our flight because of some inconsiderate passengers. We were stuck on plane for an hour. I was quite worried cos we had a connection flight at London Heathrow to Edinburgh. Thankfully we rushed and managed to catch the connecting flight. It was like amazing race.

8-13 June
We spend a good 5 days in Edinburgh and Glascow. We went to Castles, climbed Arthur Seat, Underground city. We also went to the highlands in Scotland where we visited Loch Ness as well as enjoying the countryside of Scotland. In Glascow, we went to a few famous landmarks including Glascow University and Klevingrove Museum. Glascow is a modern city with a mixture of ancient and futuristic buildings. In contrast, Edinburgh is more like a castle surrounded by city.

13-16 June
We headed to Liverpool. Well, the main reason is of course to visit Liverpool football club. It was quite a nice visit to the museum and Anfield stadium. We dropped by Everton FC too. Then we also went to the birthplace of Beatles. Cavern Club at Matthew Street. In fact, we went to the club twice to indulge ourselves in the old days of Beatles. Really. Liverpool is a nice place with historical landscape. No wonder it is a UNESCO Heritage city.

16-21 June
More to come as we complete day 2 of our London Trip. Eye opener for me again. There are several places in London I have never gone during the last trip in 2002. First, it was BBC in White City. Then, Portobello Road market and also Borough Market near River Thames. I went up the historic Tower Bridge this time. Wow. Nice views and also a better knowledge of how the bridge was constructed. Attended first Musical at Leichester Square. Nice! Les Mis! What a nice set they have and beautiful voices. That's about it. Will update more once I m back home.

21 June
Bye Bye UK and home sweet home.

PS: Dear Birthday on 10 June and I was away again. :P Nonetheless, I still want to wish her Happy Bday and thank her for being there for me all these while.
