I love London and i dont care who knows!!!!!!!!
we later went to a restuarant near the Waterloo Station called Ping Pong Dim Sum and it was sooooo wonderful! even the atmosphere was really nice, and the food was good, and it was just a lot of fun. then we went back into another part of town for Haagen-dazs, and theeeen, went to Cinnabon where i shared one bun with my friends who have never tried it! they were in Heaven after the first bite. I told them their American friend was a bad influence and they will turn into "American size"!!
so, it was sad to have to leave and come back to Eastbourne....or Eastbouring, now. I loved living in Tokyo and the nightlife and always having things to do. and while Eastbourne has the water and peacefulness, i really do miss the hustle and bustle of the big city. but, no worries! we will plan another trip to stay there for a few days and fit in lots more stuff.
Yesterday i went and took a day trip to london with my 2 friends Amelie and Anna from Germany. it was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much fun!!!
We first got off the station and saw Big Ben and Parlaiment, then strolled down to Westminster Abby, and looked at a park, rode the 'tube' quite a few times, which we didnt really have to 'pay' for, cause our train ticket covered that so it was very convenient! saw the River Thames, the london eye which is a huuuuge ferris wheel that has enclosed capsule like things so you can see for miles of london. we didnt go on it, but we saw it. i guess that could be for next time.
we also went to a place called Madame Taussads (sp? not really sure) but there they have a big museum of wax figures of various celebrities, musicians, sport players, and politicians. you can take pictures with them, and i thought it was gonna be creepy like 'house of wax' or something, but it was really fun and the detail to the models was incredible!
