My friend Shean and I headed down to London on the 23rd December to meet up with our dear friend Eugene for Xmas. Took the train down to London and was greeted by the busy London!!!
This picture was taken at the tube station. It was an ad for holiday and the picture for New Delhi was the amazing Baha’i Temple!!!
This is me waiting to eat after the train…we had dinner at this place called May Flower with another friend from Newcastle, Farhan….the food there was yummilicious… lobster noodle and grilled honey eel….so yummy!
Eugene surprised us by telling us that we weren’t actually going over to his place in Reading (which was the initial plan) and instead we had his sister’s place to ourselves (sister and her hubby went back to Malaysia for Xmas) for the whole entire time we were there right smack in the heart of London! Thanks you Eugene’s sister and bro-in-law!!!! Lovely house and amazing location made Shean and I go $_$…
The next day (Xmas Eve), we made our way to this restaurant called Cha Cha Moon for lunch on Carnaby Street. Char Kuay Teow was gooood.!
After lunch and a bit of walking around, we headed to Hyde Park to the Winter Wonderland. It is a fun fair with Christmas and snow-themed rides and different kinds of food. Below are some of the photo snapped!
I love this photo of the boys!
this is the other ride we went on besides the ferris wheel, called the black hole….it was fast, very dark and very quick.
On Xmas Eve, we had extra company, Eugene’s friend Jia Ping to join us for the festivity.
Settlers of Catan to pass time!
Midnight, open present time……Pressies all the way from Miri!!! Thank you Elmo!
Christmas we had roasted chicken, and roasted potatoes and carrots…which we comatose immediately after lunch!
On Boxing day, we went to the all famous boxing day shopping!! It was too crowded for my liking but managed to get at least somethings. After shopping and dimsum lunch, we headed home to rest for a bit. After resting for a bit, we headed off to Waterloo for Avatar at the IMAX 3D cinema!! All 3 of us were so excited!!!!
After the amazing movie (please go and watch it) with our 3D glasses which sadly we had to return. Please go and watch the movie for a fantastic experience…if you watch it in 3D its even BETTER!
The next day we headed to Kings Cross and got on platform 9 3/4! Sadly not to Hogwarts but back to Newcastle!
