Yup, time flies and we are back from London! It was overall a fun and nice experience for us, though I must admit I really was overwhelmed by the crowds and the traffic at first. It's like back to Singapore! Jw and I were not really used to it, after having been accustomed to Karlskrona's peaceful, simple, slower way of life. 

Things I like about London  

1. Leicester Square, Chinatown with its wide range of yummylicious chinese food

2. The long shopping streets

3. The beautiful night scenery

4. The cabs (not as expensive as expected and fits strollers and luggages nicely!)

5. The English signboards and TV channels (finally, we understand what people are talking about!)

1. The unpredictable and rainy weather (It rained 2 out of the 3 days we were there!)

2. The not baby-friendly facilities (for eg. the tube with the long flights of stairs, the restaurants with no space for strollers)

3. The crowds, traffic, pollution, fast pace of life (it was hard to push baby around without getting bumped by people because everyone was walking so fast and there were so many people!)

We visited Hyde Park, Big Ben, Tower Bridge and London Bridge, Tate Modern, Leicester Square and took a ride on London Eye. Sadly it was raining when we were on the Eye, so we didn't manage to take nice pictures cos' of the water droplets on the windows. Anyway, it was raining and cold and Angel was crying. So, guess what? I had to nurse her on the London Eye. Wahaha. Judging from how the people there don't really seem to be open to nursing in public, I probably am one of the few mums who have done it there. Keke. Not that it's something to be proud of, but it's definitely something to remember.

The best thing about this trip was partly to have been able to meet up with Joanne, Robin and Justin. Jw must be elated to see two of his brothers in a single trip. Hee. And for me, I was just happy to see jo and go sightseeing together, with baby angel!! Though having a baby surely makes travelling more cumbersome and inconvenient, I think we still managed and it was an exciting experience for Angel to take the airplane, the train, the cab and visit so many interesting places. I bet she won't remember it, but you know, there're always the pics and the vids to remind us when we get old. =)

So, till I find time to do a vid! Keke. =) I am so stuck with the tune of London Bridge is falling down. =p Btw I think the bridge actually refers to the Tower Bridge that can open and close, not the actual by name London Bridge. =) But well, whatever. 

Byebye London and till we meet again!!
