Guess what, I brought 2 luggages for the Europe trip, but I brought back 4 luggages when I am going back to Singapore from London!

Europe Trip: 9th stop - Newcastle, UK
So, this is Phan Shean
It took me about 7 hours to reach Newcastle. I reached there at about 10 something in the evening. Phan Shean picked me up from the bus station and head back to his house. His room was kinda neat and nice. We spent the whole night chit chatting and watching movies.
The next day was a rainy day, SIEN! We only got to go out for a while to look at the Newcastle city area, a castle and a art gallery. The art gallery was awesome. Everything was so artistic. After that, I suggested to go home, because it's kinda sien to travel under the rain and that day was so cold, it had reached 10 degree celcius, yes, its 10 degree celcius in SUMMER! Super duper cold, I rather online or sleep at home. After we reach home for a while, it started to rain heavily, phew...luckily we reached home. Phan Shean said that, in Europe, its hard to see thunder and it seldom rain heavily, and guess what he said? He said that I brought bad luck to Newcastle. WTH, =.=" That evening, we "tapao" fish and chips in 1 of the restaurant nearby for our dinner. The portion was damn big!! I couldn't even finish it!! Phan Shean said that he always divide it into 2 meals...
Some pictures that I took during the 1st day in Newcastle
The next day was drizzling, but I insisted that I wan to go out NO MATTER what, evil hor, hehe. I went to Alnwick Castle, which is the castle where the movie "Harry Potter" was shooting. It needs about 1 and a half hour bus ride from Newcastle's city area. Guess what, Phan Shean himself also din go that castle before although he had stayed in Newcastle for 4 years. =.=" Luckily it doesn't rain any more when we were about to reach,wee!!! The castle was AWESOME. The scenery is really really nice. We took a lot of pictures while we are in the castle.
Some pictures that I took in Alnwick Castle
I left Newcastle the next morning and head back to London. Luckily the bus this time was much better, I can really feel the air cond. Haha, although I din do much things or travel alot in Newcastle, but I don enjoy the weather there and the time that I spent with my ex class mate. =)

Europ Trip: 8th stop - London, UK
If I didn't remember wrongly, I reached London at about 6 something in the evening. The sky are still bright. I was deciding whether I should take the train from Stansted Airport to Walton-on-Thames, which is the place that my uncle staying or taking a bus to Victoria Station. But when you look at their train map, you will have a lot of stars coming out from your head, because they has "too-many-line" in London and around London: underground, bakerloo line, picadilly line, bla bla bla... So, I chose to take a direct bus from Stansted Airport to Victoria station, then only I take train to Walton-on Thames. I reached my uncle's place at around 10 something in the evening, wth!! But, the sky just look like 7:30PM in Singapore. =)
My uncle worked as the main cheft in 1 of the restaurant in Walton-on Thames, so, most of them are staying together in their "hostel", which is a house located near to the restaurant. The boss was nice enough to allowed me to stay there, wee... Can save more on accomodation and food (uncle provide mer, he cook 1 le...),haha... Although their hostel are quite messy, but then still OK la, the people there are nice, free some more, what to complain??
The next day, which is a Tuesday, is my aunt and uncle's "off day". FYI, my aunt and uncle doesn't work at the same place. So, my uncle brought me to China Town to met my aunt. China Town is the one-and-only-place that my uncle know how to go alone in London, funny right? haha.. That day, they brought me around Picadilly Circus which is a 1 of the shopping area in London. We saw a lot of tourist along the street. There are a lot of "quite cheap" and interesting souvenir shop, food and beverages, fashion, jewelly... We also went SOHO, the red light area of London. People there are really much more open than us, those sex and gay magazine will just place there and for you to take for free, every 1 will just do their own stuffs without bothering who walk forward and take those magazine. If you do the same thing in Malaysia or Singapore, people will just stare at u d... That day we didn't buy any thing, according to my aunt's evil plan, she wants to buy it on the following Tuesday, when my uncle not around, so that he wont nag at her,haha...
The Parliament
Nice right?
