London
Oh what a city art' thou London
We went to his house and immediately took off to adore
the adjoining gurdwara
Gurdwara sri guru singh sabha
Fact-named the best architecture of London in 2004
A beautiful and huge gurdwara
All this time I was searching for one thing
Free wifi
I know everybody is searching for free wifi ,hehe
And I found It at their home
After a restful sleep,we woke up around 8 in the morning
and ate a indian breakfast. At least the yogurt was british .here is the lovely
family that hosted us
Anyways after that we took a all day bus pass (by the way
the best way to roam around London)
Sat on the front seat of the classic London bus and
enjoyed the view
They took us to the west end mall –a huge mall by the way
and we had a lovely time and in the evening we came back and took a taxi and
went to our hotel and joined the group with whom we toured the rest of Europe
If you think that you can navigate entire Europe by
yourself then you are kidding yourself
Benefits of travelling with a group
1.A group is less likely to be target of pickpockets and
2.You are not roaming around like a lost lamb trying to
figure out where to go
3.The French are allergic to English ,I mean literally
4. Europe is so god damn costly
Of course there are drawbacks like not having enough
freedom and irritating and egotistical delhites but the benefits are greater
We all hopped on a bus in the morning and first we went
to a tour of the major landmarks of the city like the london bridge,the bell
tower and the british parliament and then we stopped at the most famous place
in Britain-the Buckingham Palace
Where we were just in time for the famous changing of
guard ceremony which was quite nice but no that amazing
I carefully searched for jatinder pal singh bhullar the
only sikh turbaned guard of her highness
But I guess he was on the other shift
Fact-Most of the prominent buildings in London are constructed
and owned by dubai sheikhs .london economy is on the verge of collapse
After a indian dinner(came with the package)we went to
sleep.i slept after watching BBC for a few hours
DAY 2
We went of to the madame Tussaud's museum in London which
was a wonderful experience
I have been to the one in New York,but this was way
better
And me being a history and movie buff,it was a treat for
me
After spending a few hours there we went for lunch at a
local bistro and I had turkey for the first time in my life.Yum by the way.In Case i forgot to mention i am a foodie
Then they dropped us of at the oxford street –the shopping
street of England ,mostly costly stuff but some good showrooms too
After setting a rendezvous point I went around happily
alone roaming oxford street
And after 3-4 hours of walking
And looking around we went back to the hotel
7’0 clock that night we boarded a cruise ship crossing
from England to Belgium via the English channel
To be continued…
