(DAY 3 ) 7/4 OUR FIRST DAY OUT (ourselves)
krystle :
HELLO AGAIN!
okay. firstly I want to start how stupid am I. I wanted to go Liverpool stadium, Anfield. But I thought it was in London because there's also a Liverpool Tube(mrt) Station. But no! There is no stadium there. Anfield is in Liverpool, another part of England. ARGH. Because for these few days, if you go there, you get to take home a photo of you and the champions league trophey =( Okay, thank god we didnt stupidly make our way there, we first went to Notting Hill Gate. So cool you know the Julia Roberts and Hugh Grant movie was filmed there. Hahahha. okay enough, ya.
So we went to the flea market that was only opened on Saturday. Its called Portobello Market.
It was super long can!!! We took more than 4 hours walk the whole stretch. There were many many antiques, clothes, sliverware... so many old cameras, stamps bla bla. BUT still freaking expensive!! like one small spoon cost £4 ($12!) so we didnt buy much. But cheryl got a jacket from there. We got lost a bit towards the end but we managed to find our way to another tube station. We had sandwiches that cost us £2.50 each! ($7.50) Just for sandwiches alone. The london life. And we had the nicest strawberries ever! 2 boxes for like £1.50 ( $4.50) But they were the most perfect looking ones and sweetest. YUM.
It was almost 7 then we took a tube to Westminister. The shitty thing is we kept taking the wrong train and direction which made really dulan. Cos there isnt any escalators and stuff, just all steps and bridges so we had to keep crossing them. Sigh.
Finally we reached Westminister, came out and saw the Big Ben. WOW. The architecture was simply amazing. Somemore we went there when the sun was setting behind and the building looked Gold.
The London Eye was just opposite it and it felt so unreal that we were here in London. Hahah. Bought some postcards along as well. We wanted to call back to Cheryl's relatives place so we decided to use the pay phone. One call 40p. ($1.20) !!!! okay so nevermind. but all the telephones in the red box dont work! worst thing they makan my lui !!!!! Super angry at that point. We bang the telephones and kept yelling we want our money back. Hhahaha. okay, a bit exaggerating. but only 1 out of 5 worked la. pathetic. We went back to Leicester Sq to play some 2p coin game. We spent about 2pounds there playing that stupid game. And all we won was a small doll. ala. And cheryl need to use the toilet. so we went into the shopping mall to find one. And it costs £1 to go in! ($3) what the hell right. paying 3 sing bucks to go in. But cheryl had to go anyway but super ridiculous. suay. haha. We ate a super late dinner at Kebaby at Morden. Slammed tired when we reach back home. zzzzz
