London at night, a whole new world.

Visits | Buckingham Palace, Piccadilly Theater, (Night view) Piccadilly Circus, Big Ben, London Eye, Tower Bridge
Eats | Royal China Bayswater, Princi Soho, Ducks and Waffles

Dim sum time!!
I miss dim sum! It was soooooooo goooooood. I kind of had an embarrassing moment though because I asked the waiter for some sweet sauce. In Malaysia, we usually eat it with chili sauce and sweet sauce but apparently, in the original version, the dim sum are eaten with chili sauce and chili oil. Hahaha, the waiter was like "What?? Sweet sauce?????? WAAAATTT?!". Just kidding, I'm exaggerating if you can't tell.

Experiencing England's countryside! 

Visits | Windsor Castle, Bourton on the Water
Eats| Wagamama

We started our journey in the morning and stopped at Windsor Castle before going to Cotswolds. Thank you very much for my ah yi and ah gu because they purposely stop here to let me visit the castle. *gratitude x100000*. 

They have video guide for everyone as well! It's included in the entrance fee. 
It cost £17.50 for students and £19.20 for adults. The queue wasn't that bad I think because they have a lot of ticket counters, we just waited around 30 mins or so. They have enough guides but weirdly enough, limited earphones. I left mine in the car so I have to make do with the loudspeaker, which is not really pleasant. I advice people who are visiting this place to bring their own earphones so that you'll be more comfortable during the audio tour.

Flying to England

The mid break has started, and I am so excited to get on the plane because I am finally going to London! The journey to the Entzheim Airport was not easy. No thanks to Google Maps. Turns out, I could have gotten on the train and reach there in 10 mins rather than 1 hour and a half with trams and buses. 

PS4 in the airport. Though I prefer Metal Slug than FIFA.
