Could i imagine i had Royal Wedding?Dream is belong to anyone, well okay, i don't need Royal Wedding just Loyal Wedding, sounds better for me :)
The world is busy about trending topic of Royal Wedding last week ( i wrote this on 2018, now is 2021), Wow! Congratulation Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, even i don't know well two of them, but Prince Harry was in my childhood's brain, since kid i wished to have prince charming and i picked Harry (not because he is good or etc just because he is Prince, that's all). bahaha.. i knew his birthday too and never forget till now, what a memory!
The journey to famous island.
Okay, this topic makes me back to my journey to United Kingdom! The land that i ever mentioned to somebody when i was in high school, "one country i would visit for sure is England".
Wave Goodbye France, i am ready to get the new experience to be in the fast train, tunnel train in the world.
Eurostar train, first time i wished to see fish from the train, but i was fooled. haha.. of course it is very safe tunnel not glass tunnel under the sea!! come on Deb!
Look! I am 75 m under the sea between Europe and United Kingdom! What an amazing journey, except i had to manage an hour unpleasant interviewed with the U.K border.. part of the journey to strict country, United Kingdom.
What a lovely, i found very big romantic statues inside the station while i was single lady with very very heavy bag gluing in my body.. what a beautiful day! ha!
See.. How stuck the bags (front and back) on my body, the news is they were very very very heavy!
St. Pancras Station from outside! I just knew (too late), this place is the area for J.K Rowling's best seller. Harry Potter and other students would go to the magic school Hogwarts. in the platform 9 3/4 of St. King's Cross !! (the clip below)
Harry Potter's clip to go to platform 9 3/4
Do you think, Western country always clean. but see.. Look what i found in one spot in the corner of St. Pancras!
You are in London, you would see Red buses like those!
Look how cute the taxis there? and amazingly they put caption DRIVEN BY HUMANS! I prefer driven by Aliens please!
Indonesian can't live without rice, even in London, what i need is only rice and i got Nasi Goreng, fried rice for 5 Poundstering in take away Chinese restaurant! I don't know why all Chinese restaurant in United Kingdom (London, Coventry and Stone henge area) not let you eat in their place, only for taking away the food. Might be for getting better profit?
in my host's home sweet home, they have this kind machine that i don't know how to use it. What are those buttons for? This machine was in the kitchen and the function for the exhaust the smoke of our cooking.
Okay after put my heavy bags in host's house, it's time for exploring London again.
If you want to explore this city, buy the card (Oyster card) and easily top up and stop in the station.
Hmm.. I am here. many people around me, but i feel alone. metaphor. I really don't like to travel by my self ever again.
Okay, i didn't exchange pound-sterling here, i choose the best rate in BFC Exchange.
Amazingly, i am in the area of Buckingham Palace where Queen Elisabeth lived there! Waaw..
Yes, i am here. The wind really push me this far to Buckingham Palace (just in the front yard not inside yet, haha)
Another Icon of London is... London Eye ! When i wanted to see nearer. you wouldn't imagine how long the queue of people wanted to try this Ferris wheel!
The background of London Eye is London dungeon that i didn't visit. :P
I am in the area of Harrods, luxurious shopping mall that will make your mouth keep opening. haha!
Bet how much those stuff? I can't tell because i couldn't afford it. hahahahaha..
