Arrived to London around evening, after collecting our luggages we then buy underground cards for each of us, it's just like a TouchNGo card. It can also be used for bus. Loving how convenient it is to take the underground to many places and also some of the bus that operates 24 hours. You just have to know which bus number to take to the right destination. It stated really clearly at each bus station.

Touching down to London soon.
Whee, clouds.

Look at those cotton candy clouds.
This is the card ; Transport for London. Highly recommended to get this if you want to move around!
So, lets start with DAY 1 memories made in London:
As stated earlier, we arrived in the evening. So nothing much for us to do but to have our dinner. Moreover we're still newbies in London hence we don't know where to start with yet. So, as we try to find our way to our hotel, we found a restaurant that serves Italian food.
The light candles in a wine bottle for every table to enhance the environment.
They served sparkling water.
Fish&Chip ; food of the night.
After our dinner, we then look for our way to our hotel. It was a few streets ahead until we found it, it's located at Bayswater.
DAY 2 memories made in London:
Highlight of the day: LONDON BRIDGE
Snap an OOTD before heading out.
Woke up at 9am, all of us are ready for breakfast! It's a waste if you don't try out their breakfast and coffee when you're in UK. We had our breakfast at a Cafe/Restaurant, down few streets from where we stayed. We decided to sit outside, to have this opportunity where you probably can't enjoy such nice weather back in Malaysia.
Mocha ; it's perfecto for a cooling weather.
Hehe, candid pic of my brother.
Hello, a selfie of me. Being vain as usual. :p
I didn't know my brother took this picture of me, such a nice candid shot! Good job kor. Haha.
Scrambled egg on toast.
Simple breakfast.
After breakfast, we then head to Oxford street by taking the underground. A street where you can find most of the fashion shops like TOPSHOP, MANGO, H&M and many others! If you're a girl, you'd probably shop 'till you drop like me. Haha.

Outfit of the day.
With my lovely bradaaa.
Taxi(s), looks way nicer than the ones in Malaysia.
Flowers that selling by the street, while on the way to the underground.
The underground, it's so clean.
Oxford Street
Things you do when there's a full length mirror, hehe.
My inner outfit.
Really love this top but it was too loose for me hence I didn't get it. :(
Sorry, only managed to take Topshop's picture in Oxford Street as I was too excited to go in to shop! Haha. Sorry guys! They have 4 levels in that Topshop. I must say it's like my heaven. Haha! I also went to few more other shops such as Riverisland, MANGO, Accesorize and so on!
This street is super long, it links to other streets which has fashion stores and designer stores as well.
After a satisfied shopping, we then head to St. Pancras to get our train tickets to Paris. We took the underground to St. Pancras.
Had a munch before heading to St. Pancras ; heathy pack. In London, you can find many of this kind of food along the street. They serve you salads or wraps. It's really healthy.
St. Pancras
By the time we bought the tickets, it's already evening. So, we decided to go to London Bridge! It's nicer to visit the London Bridge with lights on at night. We took the bus instead to go to London Bridge. It was quite a distance to London Bridge from where we were. We sat on the upper deck of the bus to get a better view!
A selfie in the bus. :)
Yay, finally arrived to London Bridge.
It looks amazing in reality.
Le familia ; my backbones. <3
After visiting the top tourists attraction. We explored the place around Buckingham Palace which located at City of Westminster. We passed by a BMW showroom and their iConcept super car. Besides that, passed by a hotel owned by the Arabians, and there were two sexy beast parked at the valley. So, it's pictures time!

We had dinner somewhere near the London Bridge, after that we took the bus back to our hotel. It was a long day for all of us but we really enjoyed every moment of it! xoxo

DAY 3 memories made in London:
Highlight of the day: Took a pic with A&F model!
OOTD before heading out!
Day 3 is all about shopping, shopping & shopping! Haha. We went to Regent St, it's actually just a few minutes walk down from Oxford Street. You can find Superdry store, Hollister, Abercrombie & Fitch there! Also, there are many other boutiques and also designer stores like MK, Burberry, Ted Baker and many more. The main point for me to bug my parents to go there was to take a pic with the A&F british model! HAHAH. Jokes, not so desperate, obviously to hunt down those clothes! As for Superdry is much cheaper here than in Malaysia.
We had to queue up to get into Hollister, my god is so damn packed inside and everyone snatching for sizes as if the clothes are on sales but they aren't. Each t-shirt cost around 28-32 pound if I'm not mistaken. After that, we went to A&F which the queue wasn't as bad as Hollister's. Thank god. But everyone was queueing up to take a pic with the A&F model, his body is perfecto. Haha.
Yay, dream came true! xoxo
After that, we head to Piccadilly Circus for more shopping. By the time it's close to evening already. After a satisfied shopping, we head to the China Town for Chinese cuisine obviously, which located at Gerrard Street, not far from Piccadilly Circus. We had Hong Kong food, their BBQ pork ( Cha Siew ) is superb.
Not to forget about this, by far this is the best chocolate ice-cream I've ever had in my life!
The chocolate is so damn fine, as you know it's from GODIVA and it's not that sweet. Heaven in my mouth. (Y)
Random.
Piccadilly Circus.
China Town
Found these gacha machine outside a store, and those hello kitty merchandise caught my eyes. Haha. Wanted the pad lock but it was out of stock already. :(
Many choices of chinese restuarant.
Had our dinner at this restaurant.
YUMMZ.
Look what I found at China Town? Genting Casino! Haha.
Fatty hello kitty.
A bridal shoot was taken in China Town, was lucky to experience it.
Street performers at Piccadilly Street.
It was a long day for all of us as well, my legs hurt like crap. But, it was worth it! xoxo
We had the typical breakfast set for our brunch and we also tried kebab which you can find many shops at London, it's all run by Arabian. The kebabs are better than the ones in Malaysia, love it! As for dinner, honestly I can't remember what we had, I guess we had western cuisine. Anyways, went to Trafalgar Square and Buckingham Palace which was the highlight of the day. Both of this places are the top tourist attraction in central of London. There are a number of statues and sculptures in the square, with one plinth displaying changing pieces of contemporary art. The square is also used for political demonstrations and community gatherings, such as the celebration of New Year's Eve. There were plenty of people, all of them were posing for a picture or taking picture of the place. Here, let the pictures continue the story of the day:
Loving this picture, there's an autumn-kind-of-feeling. Taken this when otw to Trafalgar Square by the bus.
Found a Malaysian Restaurant when walking to Trafalgar Square.
Idk what does this blue rooster represent at Trafalgar Square. Lol.
Selfie ; the strong wind makes my eye looking teary.
With the beloved brother ; <3>
Every time I look at them, they remind me of a scene in one of the Mr.Bean's film, where he rapidly disturbs them. Hahaha.
Marching ; they were damn synchronize.
The peak of London Eye, will be visiting it on the following day!
DAY 4 memories made in London:
Highlight of the day: Trafalgar Square x Buckingham Palace
After visiting the top tourists attraction. We explored the place around Buckingham Palace which located at City of Westminster. We passed by a BMW showroom and their iConcept super car. Besides that, passed by a hotel owned by the Arabians, and there were two sexy beast parked at the valley. So, it's pictures time!
DAY 5 memories made in London:
Highlight of the day: London Eye
It was another long day for us, went to a few places and shopped a little as well. Firstly, we went to Camden Town which was quite a distance from our place. We took the bus instead of the underground, to take this opportunity to enjoy the scenery around in London. You can find many weird stuffs selling in Camden Town, it's like a market place. Their things are cheaper than the ones in the city and stores, just like our night market price but that's if you don't convert! Besides that, you can actually purchase marijuana cookies, lollipop, grinder and supposedly marijuana itself I guess. Not surprised. Haha. We then went to Westminster Palace, it was just a few streets down from Camden Town. After that we went to visit the LONDON EYE, like finally! Yayyers. The London Eye was much more huge that what I expected to be. We went around sunset time which was 5-odd pm, so that we can experience the changes of daylight to nighttime in the London Eye. Spent almost half an hour in the London Eye, get to see the Big Ben in a clear view and also the cities in London. Here, the pictures!
