Last Night in London.

Location: somwhere between Queensway station and Bayswater.
Time: 10:51pm



hmm, going home tomorrow! lol.. it's not like i'm complaining about the trip or anything.. it's jst that... it's a little tiring. the HORRIBLE time that the britishs picked to service/renovate its' Tube didn't help either..

I stumble all over Ldn and Paris.. basically throughout the trip with 4 humongous luggages with the average weight of 14kg each... that's excluding the hand carries which includes 2 notebooks and daddy's dvds and souvenirs. TERRIBLE I tell u!!

just today, we got back from paris to ldn and reached Luton around 3pm... We took a bus to Luton Airport Parkway or something lidat and then a train to St. Pancras... then walked all the way to King's Cross (and next door seemed like an understatement.. like everything in UK, the place was huge, King's Cross wasn't too small either.) and took train to baker's rd. To realise that the entrance that bro normally use is... *drum roll* CLOSED. from baker's Road, we walked to the opposite trail and took another train to Edgware. THEN... we had to walk around 5-10 minutes to another terminal to take a train to Bayswater, because apparently the Queensway station's closed... and the whole maintenance thing totally screwed up the whole Tube system...

HORRIBLE!! we walked here and there and everywhere... asked other people which, not surprisingly, the Tube's pretty confusing for the locals too... finally we found a train that goes to Wimbledon and got off at Bayswater station at around 5pm++....... zomg, luckily the Brits we met in our trips were actually quite nice, same goes to the French. they were quite sympathetic with our luggages and all... all in all this trip was ok... It's like backpacking.. except you do it with your family... and you stay in nicer-ish accommodations and have nicer-ish meals... but unlike backpacking, you can;t really seee what you want to... coz u're with ur family...

anyways....

i'll be back home in around 24 hours' time =)

yup, under the constant *and persistent* encouragements (and I use the term loosely... coz in some culture, they call it nagging endlessly...) from the companies I keep.... well more like kept =~~(

I'll be able to see Pipi in around 24 hours~~

It's my last day in ldn and I instead of crawling from pubs to pubs, experiencing the local culture... I spent it with my family crawling through the ditches.. i mean in the Tube stations... then to Whitley's and Tesco metro... how... fun... ... ...
