London 16.-18.2.2009

So sorry that I haven't continued! Mainly because I'm lazy... :D Let us begin. And I shall write what I remember :D

16th day MONDAY - Michael doesn't like sushi.

Alright so we wake up at the hotel. And our whole family and Michael are gonna go to downtown London. See some sights and all. There's a train station right next to the hotel so we hop on a train and it took us about 10 minutes for us to get off. The first place we went to was Madame Tussauds. Which wasn't far from where we got off at. Just so you know Madame Tussauds is the celebrity wax doll place ;D We looked around over there and took alot of pics. It was fun :)
After them wax dolls we looked for LONDON EYE. Well before that we wanted to go and eat. So when we got near London eye there was this street of some sort resturants. Everyone in my family went to this bagel shop or something and I conviced Michael we should go and eat sushi! The resturant was cool. It had this thing going on that was called "blue monday" which sorta ment that there were alot of blue plates and blue plates were the cheapest. Ok what I'm talking about is that, the resturant counts their prices off the plates you eat. There were red, pink, purple and blue plates and maybe some other colors too. I ate alot of different things since there was more than sushi. Michael didn't like sushi though...Poor hun <3 :D But I obviously loved it since I've had it before and all. After sushi we went to London eye. My family went before us since we took so long with out eatingssss. But wow London eye was awsome, well to be exact London looked awsome. It had gotten dark by the time we got on it so we could see all the lights. And you can see a pic I took on it if you look at my blog banner ;D And ofcrs me and Michael were being a cute cuddly couple while I wasn't taking pics ;D After that we went back to the hotel :P

17th day TUESDAY - Buckingham palace, big ben...

Well this was the last WHOLE day in London. Dad and Sophia stayed at the hotel, cuz Sophia fell inb love with the pool at the hotel and was abit bratty if we walked too much. So me, Michael, Mom and Danae went to see London abit more. We took the train again and the first place we saw was the park next to Buckingham palace and obviously Buckingham palace. We didn't obviously go inside... :D So after seeing the beatifull palace we walked to BIG BEN. Big ben was pretty. We also took phonebooth pics, cuz there were many phonebooths somewhat near big ben. Moms feet got really sore so we stoped by boots (small shop) and she got some heat cream that would help her or something. After that we took a metro to london brige and and the london dungeouns was pretty much next to the station so there were alot of freaky dressed peeps there. One startled Danae lol :D He took her cam and Danae freaked out but obviously we got it back since he was an actor or something...NO HE WAS REAL... :D Anyways we walked to London brige and it was being constucted abit so we didn't see it at it s full glory. After that we ate some chicken at this chicken place which wasn't KFC. :D Mom and Danae wanted to go back to the hotel and me and Michael didn't. So we took a metro to piccadilly circus and noticed that hey we are at this arcade place again. Was sorta lol... :D And we went on thouse bumper cars, Michael drove and I sat next to him. Fun :) Then we went to...was it oxford street? Anyways the major shopping street in London! Michael offered to buy me stuff so I bought this shirt from TOP SHOP and we walked all the way to primark and I bough kayne west stripe glasses, YEAH. Pretty much after that we were pretty beat so we went back to the hotel.

18th day WENSDAY - off to Swansea!
Well we didn't do much this day, we pretty much packed and left London. It would've been a rly sad day if I would've gone home with my parents but instead I went to SWANSEA. A sea known for it's swans...Just so you know Michael lives that and Swansea is in WALES not in England ;D The drive took us about 5-6 hours so it was fairly late when we got back to Michaels place. Michael was rly glad to be home since he had missed his mums cooking. We had too much junk food according to him :D We took a small walk in Michaels neighbourhood and didn't rly do that much since the whole day pretty much was spent in Michaels car. But one thing I did observe that it smelt different. Sure London did too, but Swansea didn't smell like London. It smelt abit farmish? Eventhough Michael doesn't live on a farm lol :D Best part was that I got to sleep in Michaels new bed and Michael had to sleep in his old room on his old bed. Aww poor hun <3 :D His bed was cozy though!
