530pm - London Eye, meet up Payton & Laris, uni mates from Hong Kong.
We've under estimate the weather in London, it's way more cooler than Newcastle!
This is ridiculous, unbelievable. 
Yet, there is a Christmas Market near the London Eye, there's a lot of foods and stuff selling there.












.

Next & last stop - Winter Wonderland.
It will be open until January and it's a MUST GO place if you were in London for Christmas.
It's a very very very awesome place.
I never take part in their games and all that, but it's very awesome there and you will never regret.







After this, we're almost dead x.x
We took tube and back to our hotel.

Tomorrow will be a challenging day which without any public transport.

It's too cold and I have no guts to get my hand out of my pocket,
so I never take a lot of photos here.

Then we back to place where near our hotel,
had our Christmas dinner in a restaurant named Taste of Asia.
The food is nice and we're so full!

Schedule today, not to help myself to get something but to help others to get something *headache*

KAYY Schedule today - Harrods, Longchamp stores, Burger & Lobster , Phantom of The Opera in ze Theatre.

Harrods







Very long queue and it's very crowded inside, but still manage to help my sister to get a Longchamp bag.

Then we went to Burger & Lobster and we have to wait for an hour.
Therefore we went to New Bond Street, look for Longchamp's main store.



Then we back to Burger and Lobster again.

DAY IV

Had a bad news while we're having breakfast in ze hotel.
We saw news from BBC saying that King's Cross station is over running engineering works services and all trains from King's Cross station is cancelled. If we want to go back we can take the train from Finsbury Park station. Therefore, we have to extra one more night and look for hotel in last minute.





Thanks God that our hotel still have rooms available.
At the same time, Payton & Laris stayed in our hotel as well.

There are many types of food and I have the chance to eat chinese sweet and sour chicken.
