Sorry for not updating for a while, I've been in Amsterdam, but will fill you in on that soon... Well... London.. What can I say! awesome place, but fricken FREEEEZZING!! When I got in from my flight from Hong Kong it was 5 degree's and when I woke up in the morning to go for a walk it was 3 degrees! I'm staying pretty central London in Russel Square at the Imperial Hotel which is pretty good. Though... as I was going for my walk around just to have a look around the square the I saw this girl coming walking up towards me in the distance and she was begging everyone for money. When she came up to me asking if I had any money she then stopped and asked "Oh Hang on.. Do you speak english?" and that's where I pulled out the "No Speakie Englay" hehe! worked a charm!
Well once I had done my morning walk, got breakfast I met up with Diego and Jess which was awesome! They hadn't done any sight seeing of London yet as they have only been here 5 days so we walked around and saw all the main things such as the Thames river, the London Eye, Big Ben (Which is HUGE) and Buckingham palace. Going up the London Eye we opted to pay extra to get a pimms and our own cabin and our own tour guide so that was pretty cool too telling us about everything we could see. The buildings in London are amazing! just walking around you know that the buildings have been there for centuries and centuries!
After our day of walking around central London we heading to Diego's to chill out and to catch up with Stella, Ben and an old cityvibes photographer Ash later on that night. It was really good to see everyone again but with me leaving for Amsterdam in the morning I was reluctant to have a big night, so I made sure I was home and in bed by 12am! (Had a 6am start with a 10 hour bus ride ahead).
London's awesome! great people and I'm looking forward to moving here with Candice in September once I finish at St Andrews :-)
