A Weekend walking around London

August 22, 2006 6:01 pm

Quite a few things that I like about working, mainly earning some money and get the weekend off. So we spent a day walking around London, the first time I really get to try out the camera on the k800i and used up the 64MB on it.

We set off at Earls Court at noon to Piccadilly Circus. Went to LillyWhites and got a weird bag as my old one is broken which actually lasted for 7 years I think. The bags that they were selling were very good quality and most of them were 70% off. So I picked a Karrimor one with "airspace". And one of the reason why I picked this one is because of the "airspace", I also think that it's very well Engineered. Everything have been thought of. For example, Kamil said it's a "unsymetrical bag", and yes one side has a space for bottle and the other doesn't where it has a space for the walking stick instead. many other things… and here is a picture of the "airspace" which is decided to keep our back cool.

That's enough about the bag! Next we walk to Trafalgar Square, not the first time there but this time it's quite interesting. There are more people there than usual and all looking up on to the sky…

So what are they looking at??? Find out here

Then we walked to the Scotland Yard, it's quite cool that no one or car is there :D.

Keep walking and walking, cross the River Thames see the LondonEye, Big Ben…

Everything is about the same, then we saw a space for board skating and BMX right next to the Thames at Waterloo, that really surprise me! Also note that there is a CCTV on the top.

Not a very good photo, but show guy at the back graffiti at the back. Then there was a Capital Old Age Festival which was quite interesting, some people singing, dancing… Lastly we have Tate Modern before my phone went out of batter and memory. Quite a nice building.

I think somehow I have make it sounds quite boring, but it was actually quite a interesting day :D. Here is more photos for you, and have a look at Kamil's blog on this, it's more interesting :).

Not your typical Sunday Stroll……

What a better way to spend your prenultimate weekend in London than to take a stroll along the landmarks of this neo-historical city with a good friend? So that is exactly what I did today. Taking Bus 74 from Earls Court, we headed down to Oxford Stree…
