tour of london part 4.. big ben and the london eye



when we came out from the westminster station.. the first thing we saw was the london eye.. haha.. i was so happy.. cos the woman in the station had initially told us that the big ben was at the westminster station, and the london eye was at some other dunno wat wart station.. but then we managed to cover both places by exiting from the same station.. its damn tiring ok!!! to tour london in 4 hours.. and by that time we were quite shack oredi..



thats the big ben.. its like damn high security lah.. cos when we walked out from the station.. its was this "gate-d" place.. and a lot of security cameras ard..



thats another bridge.. and yes.. that is my shadow.. artistically taken pic :)
reminds me of the one we took when we were at the grand canyon.. when we were too shack to walk anymore and decided to take pics of our shadows.. me, ct, joc and jh..



the big ben from across the street..



this was also the point when i realised that the camera sucks.. haha.. or rather.. my photo taking skills suck.. cos i couldnt adjust the camera to take a clear pic which could see both me AND the big ben at the same time..



see what i mean.. the one above is not the worst pic.. the next pic is the ultimate..





hehe.. but after fiddling ard with the camera, realised i could take these multi-shot kind of pic.. although it isnt clear.. its a multi-shot of the london eye.. in case u cant tell..



the london eye again.. hey.. its not always i can get such a clear shot!! so appreciate the pics even though they look the same.. actually we had wanted to walk back to the tube station oredi.. but then i just lighted up lah.. so decided to walk along the river.. to get a clearer and more direct view of the london eye..



the direct view :)



walked all the way to the next bridge.. the golden jubilee bridge.. i dun understand why its plural.. why bridges and not bridge??



on the golden jubilee bridge.. oh yah.. that plastic bag im carrying.. managed to get some stuff from a souvenir shop along bond street.. a t-shirt and an ash-tray.. the pple there quite rude leh.. cos when we went in.. it was close to closing time.. and they had to keep reminding us that the shop was closing.. joc wanted to buy a t-shirt but kept getting rushed by them.. so irritating.. but the t-shirt that she got for her bf quite nice..



me and the big ben..



london eye on the left and big ben on the right.. actually the tube stations are all very near to each other.. thats why we managed to move in and out of the tube stations so fast.. and cover so many parts of london.. ok ok.. enuff of big ben and london eye pics..
