Edinburgh, Skye, Great Britain

Looking supremely happy on the Golden Mile! Just getting ready to start our “haunted” night tour. That was, in fact, quite boring and too theatrical for our tastes. I kinda fell asleep at the last part cos it was so tiring to keep straining my ear just to understand the Scottish accent.

The scenery is so good, the mountain at the back looks kinda fake doesn’t it!

Rumply bed hair, but I quite like this photo.

This looks like a scene out of a movie, don’t it? And SUDDENLY, *cue music & wind sound* a dragon flies overhead to hunt some Scottish cattle.

I am basically freezing and have no idea how Bella is holding up with her Red Indian cape that bares her forearms.

Pot of peonies at this restaurant we had a really rushed lunch. We gobbled down our food and ran the whole way back to the bus to find that there were still quite a few latecomers missing.

Our B&B that we got into so much trouble. First was giggling like a bunch of school girls while people were addressing us. Then came making too much noise after 10.30 while watching TV and playing Monopoly Deal. Finally, Van washed and dried her clothes which is against the rules. :( It could have been a awesome stay, it was so pretty!

Live prawns just unloading from the trawler at Portree. They call prawns ‘langoustines’ instead.

And in between the two pictures above, is what Jingfang coined as “Endless Sea”. Her favourite attraction out of our Skye trip.

Bagpipes! Gah, the most angelic sound you are not. Especially when your owner smells kinda funky.

The Dunvegan Castle! This is my favourite attraction at Skye, cos the guides are passionate and have pretty interesting stories on how people lived and the general culture of Scotland. Apparently, the castle is still in use by the family at times. Imagine having your own castle. WHEEEE!

Who’s an eejit now?

London, Great Britain

Looks ominous doesn’t it? Haha

Ducks in Hyde Park following some kind of calling, all crossing the pavement at the same time! We were really surrounded by them, humans as the minority haha!

Yay! The rain stopped! Bye bye Hyde Park, too bad we missed the nude-cyclist-event the next day :P

Yay, I love Wicked! The best musical I’ve seen! What a plot!

So I’m Elphaba? Haha messing around with the ever joker.

At our Windsor day trip, beautiful weather in a beautiful town. BUT our tour guide was kinda scary, NO HOT FOOD on the bus. He really raised his voice at this lady on the bus when she broke the rule.

At Bath. I would really like to have spent more time there. It’s a lovely place to wander around.

Hello Stonehenge!

Oxford Road! Why do the shops close so early?! Everytime we get there, they’re closing! But that’s fine too, cos my funds were limited.

London Eye. What a cold and depressing night that was. We couldn’t find a place for dinner and when we finally did, the food wasn’t good but still expensive. I feel the ride is overrated, Everything is grey from the top, other than Big Ben and the Parliament Houses. When we were leaving, the wind was so strong, I really understood what’s “chilled to the bone”, but we saw this Asian couple taking their wedding shots there and the bride had to take off her jacket to reveal her shoulders. Things people do for weddings, pfftt.

Westminster Abbey. Cathedral and tombs. Quite overrated too after too many Roman cathedrals.

OH I SO WANT TO GO! It’s a Feastival!!! By Jamie Oliver!!! How!!!

A really good restaurant down at Soho. And our server is TOO CHARMING. I would totally ask him out if I lived there. He’s like a Caucasian Lee Min Ho.

This is my favourite photo of London. Four men strolling down the street together to get lunch. In suits.
