I was flying to London on 15 September. Soon after I arrived, I was walking the Westmister walk. Started off at the most beautiful park I ever set eye on, I embarked my journey in London from Green Park to Buckingham Palace. It was raining that day, but hey it's London. Rain and London are inseparable entities. From Buckingham Palace, I continued walking toward the Big Ben via Green Park. The Big Ben is now officially named Elizabeth Tower. Nestled next to Big Ben is always the majestic Westmister Abbey.
I walked pass through Big Ben and Thames river toward the South Bank where I got my classic British meal, Fish and Chips. The portion is so big I took note to myself that I will have someone share it with me next journey in London. From the window of the restaurant, the view is amazing. Big Ben and London Eye are so close. So close.
After completing my lunch, I made my way toward embankment where I found an alley that smells coffee. I decided to find warmth at one of the crowded cafes, villears. Apparently, the name of the alley is villear. Hahaha.. There I met a man named Jhonny who must be the nicest man in the whole Britain. He talked to us, all cheerful and welcoming. I told him to come to Indonesia one day. Kekekeke..
Trafalgar Square is just right around the corner from Villear Street. It's so silly that my only reasoning to visit this place is SHINee. Those five boys were in this place when they were in London and of course, the fangirl in me wanted to follow. So there you go me posing in front of the Lion at the Square. And fangirl in me is happeh
Pass the Lion, I made my way to Crossing Cross station next to Trafalgar square. Next destination: Oxford Street. The busiest street in London, full of shops and their eager customers. That including me! I walked in and out shops before found the one I was looking for. Debenhams at Oxford Street houses Urban Decay counter and I finally got my hand on the most gorgeous eye shadow palette on earth. Urban Decay's Naked 1 is simply the best!
Satisfied with my shopping, I went back to my hotel. But before that, I got a piece of super delicious waffle topped with cream, chocolate and banana. Soooo good! So I ended my day 1 in London in a very good happy mode.
Happy that my dream of London comes true. Happy that my childhood dream also comes true. In London, my dreams were fulfilled.
