ye olde london towne

london!!!

well, firstly i must apologise for this lengthy delay in my posting updates -- i don't really have any sort of valid excuse, i'll just blame laziness! i promise i'll try not to let it happen ever again!

the bad thing about leaving it so long between postings, is that now i have no recollection of what i got up to on my trips that i did a month or so ago, so i'll just post the photos and hopefully that will give you an good enough suggestion of what i got up to

now this was a trip of Firsts for me: my first time to london, AND my first time to have a great mate with me working the flight!
i was so incredibly excited to have Natalie on board with me and to have beside me as we both discovered London for the first time together:

so yeah, i can't remember exactly what it was that we got up to, but i do remember how FREAKIN' cold it was in london!!! and the majority of our time in london was spent on the top storey of an open-air double-decker tour-bus, i'll blame Natalie for that! actually, it was my fault that we had to sit upstairs and never downstairs in the heated enclosed section -- i dragged Natalie upstairs with me because i refused to take photos through a window -- so yeah, sorry about that Nat, hopefully over the past month you've regained some sensations back into your fingers

also, i remember being overwhelmed by the tour guide's recollections of Britain's many kings and queens of eras gone by; talk of Edward The Thirds and Henry The Fifths and Johnny The Seventeeth and who lived in what building during which century, it was all so much to take in!
but we had a great time, london's a fantastic city, and i'm looking forward to having a bit of time there to check it all out! (even though my Macca's "value" meal cost me AUD$17)


anyways, here are the photos!:



stay tuned, next week: SINGAPORE!!!


let the good times roll!!
