Footprints in London - Madame Tussauds & Harrods

London Day 5 (15 Nov '07)

Today marked the last day of our short London Tour yet Blamer presented me with another chance to add another nick to her. Today, she is also known as sleepy bum bum cos after I have woken up and finish my preparations, she is still... ...


And when I tried to wake her....


Haiz, at last I manage to drag her out of bed and we went for our last breakfast at the cosy kitchen of our guest house. Both of us decided on English breakfast, since I think it is the best among all the other choices. As this is the last day, photo-whore during breakfast.

After breakfast, as the check out time is around noon, we decided to head back to our room to pack up and check out first before venturing out to our last two destinations. Sleepy bum bum complained that her legs are sore after all this walking so decided to try the Michael Jackson style of dressing. However, she can't make up her mind to be black or white (excuse the pun).

In the end, we decided on the white because on close examination, her black shoes has 战亡 during our long walks in London.


Twenty Second Stop : Madame Tussauds

Lucky lucky tat Sleepy bum bum managed to source for the Britain Card for we knocked off 8 pounds for the tickets to Madame Tussauds.

Afterwards, it's just photo-taking with the stars,





Next we entered the Chamber of Horrors, however no photography was allowed. Really enjoyed the scare ha ha not for the faint-hearted though.

Of cos not forgetting a tribute to the Lady who brought us all the fun, scares and laughter.

Twenty Third Stop : Harrods

Sleepy bum bum says this is a must visit. If u never come to Harrods, u have never been to London. I think it is just like the Paragon of Singapore in a way, all the branded stuff and even their own house brand is pretty expensive. Din really bought anything here except for some souvenirs to be brought back for friends and relatives.


After our Harrods trip, we tried to return our oyster card to get our refund cos earlier, the Metro guy at Liverpool St Station told us that we can get every single cent back. However, the lady at West Hampstead Station said no, and that we can only get back 2 pounds regardless of the amt left in the card. Sleepy bum bum got quite pissed and argued with the lady. In the end we missed our taxi and had to wait for additional dunno how many minutes for the cab to the airport.

This was us happily bidding farewell to our oyster card.


Sleepy Bum Bum's Du lan face after missing the cab. As u can see the sky is darkening.

Phew! We nearly missed our flight back, lucky the cab driver was the impatient sort and zip zag thru the London traffic. Our last meal in London consisted of soup and a bagel, not tat impressive but looking forward to our SQ return flight. Tat's all for our London trip. Do lookout for our next trip -- Taiwan, here we come!!!


-THE END-
