Day 2
A quick trip to get to Temple Church.
For the uninitated or those who din read da Vinci Code, Susan n Robert got a clue to hunt down the next murder about to take place. The venue for the murder was obviously wrong bu they came here anyway.
Point of Interest: the mysterious effigies of the Templar Knights. Well, i'm suppose to go "wow...." and all tt hoo haa.
But.....: it closes from 23 dec til 26 dec. There would be a service on 25dec, but not really interested by den.

exterior of Temple Church.

head back to Eye.

Law Courts/ King's College.

St.Paul's Cathedral from afar

Tate Modern : an old power station converted into an art exhibition for modern/contempary art. They have really intriguing art pieces. Heard of this piece where a pile of faeces can be considered as art. Very tasteful huh.

impressive waste of space.

one of the main art piece.

the other side of the viewing gallery

Millenium Bridge stretching towards St Paul's

Tate Modern


my fav pic. check out the dude doing his stunts. nice hor?

millenium bridge and beyond

Tat huge building across the river is just a train station. Again, impressive..........waste of space.

Tower Bridge. best shot after like 7 times.

London bridge, i think.

wanted to focus on tt building on the left. it has a huge gaping hole. something very troublesome to calculate for civil enigneers. a beauty to architects, but a headache for CE ppl.

where to art thou?
Just when i tot London cud not get any interesting as my hostel, i chanced upon this night market. Oh it closes at 8pm. gets dark at 4pm.
It sells FRESH fruits n veggies n erm.... hmmmm animals?

some stalls sell cheese, fondue n other sauces.

grouper, rite?

Fruits n Veggies.

in abundance

oh oh, confectionary. the CHOC cakes are seriously CHOCalty.

Fresh Animals, Hares, deer, chicken and fowls.

extra stock.

my hostel. how sleazy can it get?
My first night was uneventful. But by the second night, boy it was drama rama all night long. i stay in a 8-bedded room, so 4 double decks. I had one of the top bunks. From my bunk, i can practically view CLEARLY wat is gg on at the opposite bunk, both top n bottom.
So, boy oh boy, i woke up to the tune of groans n moans. I could make out two shadowy figures under the bedsheets in rhythmatic motions. The room was dark but still was able to see abit. As i was not wearing specs, all i cud see was blurry n jerky. Din wann to alarm the lovebirds so i just lay dere as quietly as possible and try to get back to sleep.
The next morning, got up early n i got a RUDE shock. That same bed i saw a couple sharing tt night was not 1 guy 1 ger. It was 1 guy n 1 GUY. and the supposely passive one gave mi a "good morning" smile. i smile back and he looked cheeky.
i din have a good breakfast on Day 3. Pui....

most interesting hostel to date.
