New year in London! We departed from Nice's Airport to London City Airport, London. Although we spent only 2 days in Nice, we really had a great time as it was a really nice and great place.. kalau laa banyak duit, mesti aku beli rumah kat sini... hehe

4 days and 3 nights in London.... apa lagi, sight seeing all around london la... well, pictures do tell more than the words, so paste pics aje laa kat sini... we bought 2 days bus tour via Big Bus Sightseeing Tour (Hop on - Hop off) to bring us around London. generally we went to see the followings:

1) Buckingham Palace
2) Big Ben
3) London Bridge
4) London Eye
5) Westminster Abbey
6) Trafalgar Square
7) Tower Bridge

We also went to Oxford to pay a visit to our ex-MRSM Taiping's friend Fakhrul Rozy and wife, Shaliza. Both of them are currently working as architects in Oxford. Stayed a few hours there, talking and updating ourselves. Thanks for the hospitality! Sedap nasi ayam derang buat... Amirah pulak sibuk 'mengemas' aka menyemak rumah derang dengan mengacau bookshelves yg ada kat situ... aiyooo

late that evening, we went back to hotel to rest. In london, although there were so many sales and offers at that time, we restrained ourselves from shopping as our baggages were really really full and we could not afford to bring any other additional things. However, I managed to grab some Victoria Secret's stuffs at the Gatwick Airport before departing to Amsterdam, our next stop of the tour!

Amsterdam.... ooo i really really love tulips.... sayang bukan spring time... kalau spring for sure i would be able to see tulips blooming everywhere... well, unfortunately amirah was not feeling very well when we arrived in amsterdam... fever and flu... even mama was also suffering the fever in amsterdam.. we only managed to visit the amsterdam downtown and a must visit place of Hard Rock Cafe... most of the time, we stayed in the hotel and rest as much as possible so that we can spent our best time when we went to Switzerland next....luckily the hotel that we chose in Amsterdam was good, the Mercure Hotel... so, we really did not mind to spend our day in the hotel... :)
