First of all, let me just shout it out loud, let the whole world know, (as if) I hate plane rides. It drains me down , make me super anxious and super tired. Dah la dalam plane orang kiri kanan minum beer tak tau berapa tin. *sabar je laa.. haha. Dalam hati dah macam " Ya Allah, selamatkanlah aku"
....................
After forcing myself to watch endless in-flight movies and tv series, eat and sleep, sampai jugak at last. After 13 hours and 10 minutes.. Alhamdulillah. Hee.. So.. London-Dublin-London. 4 days in London, TEN days in Dublin, 4 days in London balik masa balik. If you get what I mean. Anyway, what I was most excited about this trip was to visit the Harry Potter Studios.. *nerd alert. hehe. AND LUSH..... and of course the touristy stuff, Buckingham Palace, Big Ben, London Bridge, Tower Bridge etc..
In Dublin, Alia and I had to plan our trip from day to day. Yup, we didn't go on any tour except for the Hop On Hop Off , Malahide Castle, other then that redah je hentam naik bus, and hentam jalan sampai terpaksa beli kasut baru. Funny me pegi bawak close up shoes sebab mmg plan nak beli kasut. It literally felt like I broke my pinky toe. Tapi sebelah kanan je kenapa? Jalan senget ke? Sob sob. Oh ya.. shout out to Kak Ten for lending me her jacket. Kept me warm. Awwh.
Sooo...here are the tickets.. from Heathrow-Dublin-Banbridge-Kildare-London-Hounslow-Watford. Where most of my money goes.. sob sob. Alasan tak beli souvenir sangat. Rasa mcm such adults travelling alone.. ok ada kawan. Ok ada Auntie jugak. I told u it was a looooong story cut short. Most of the time I was with Alia je. But still.. Accomplishment. Pencapaian hidup.
Just imagine two girls or should I say ladies, no internet connection hence no google , no gps, berbekalkan maps, no idea where to visit in Dublin especially and little voices to ask people where and how to get around places. Hahah. Ok tipu.. masa mula-mula tu Auntie ada la bawak jalan2 so tau la sikit2.. We stayed with my auntie masa kat Dublin. Hari-hari dia pesan " jangan balik lambat" Tapi.. hehe. Well..I'm 23 and she's ..... #justsaying
Ini pula adalah map free dapat masa naik Hop On Hop Off London. Auntie dah pesan, "kalau tak tau nak pergi mana naik je Hop on Hop off tu satu hari" Erk memang naik setengah hari je la kan.. It was 16 pounds if I'm not mistaken for whole day trip. We took the "Big Bus Tour" instead of the "Original Tour". Don't know why. Nampak lagi menarik dan classy gitu.
Which one would you pick?
The big map of London. Ok tapi London quite easy to get around because of the super reliable tube. Plus, Alia and Auntie have been there quite a number of times so they know where to get around. While on the hop on and off bus..
Yes.. Gloomy weather. :/
Hamleys,where I had my Twix milkshake. Sedap gila sampai lupa nak ambil gambar. Nyums.
Pls ignore muka comot baju ternaik. haha. Teringat kat Yayah tangkap gambar ni. Ecece.
Tada! The tube map. All you need to do is:
1. Know where you are going
2. Tengok train tu last stop kat mana, which line you are going to take.
3. Buy the ticket . For me I bought the 'Day ticket' sebab kadang2 balik hotel then keluar balik. Roughly dalam 8.7 pounds kalau day ticket from Zone 1-6.
The only annoying thing is like most tickets, they are very sensitive. Kalau letak near phone ke handbag yg ada magnet mesti problem. Luckily sentiasa ada the officers who are ever willing to help you, provided the ticket memang valid la. Or, you can buy the "Oyster" card. Macam "touch and go".
Of course, tak sah kalau pergi London tak visit Madam Tussauds kan..
Kesian Alia she was so excited to meet her bf i.e Justin Timberlake because apparently, her brother visited the wax museum in April, ada JT tapi kitorang cari + dah tanya orang, takde pun. Agaknya ada la fanatic yg terpatahkan something kot.. haha.
Ada a guy tangkap gambar tutup Beckham. I guess I'm just not tall enough or maybe Victoria was wearing heels. Hehe. Muka excited terlebih sebab rasa kelakar tak dapat tutup Posh.
Haih its like One Direction everywhere when you are in UK.
I know.. "We" could have had it ALL. (creepy tak)
Cuddless.
Us at the Disney Store.
Spotted these super cutee boots.
Okay.. hush hush. I guess that's it for part 1. Stay tuned and goodnight!
P/s: I don't know what's up with my keek I can't seem to post videos. Till then..
Sleep tight!
