London during winter. Rain rain rain.

Our second visit to London. It rained every single day during our stay and we had to buy a very small pair but freaking expensive umbrella to survive the weather. It's around 3pm and dark outside when we touched down at Heathrow airport. Quickly tubed our way to our hotel and on a side note, it's pretty pathetic lugging baggages while making our way in the crowd when it's RAINING.

Me ready to go out for dinner!

Leicester Square aka Chinatown, the place we go for our meals

We randomly chose a restaurant in Chinatown, shared half a roast duck, XO sauce pork, and GW warmed himself up with a bowl of winter melon soup. The food is superb and I will recommend this place. I forgot what is the restaurant name but i remember it's right beside a Asian stall with green signage called See-Woo. Try to find it if you are interested.

At Odeon, Leicester Square

I was quite surprised that the carousel there spins at turbo speed!

It was late at night and all shops were already closed. Abit sad cuz I was dying to go to Primark. Then we found a mini arcade along Oxford Street and GW was super duper happy to see his favourite VIRTUAL STRIKER.

P/S: there's no arcade in Karlskrona, I wonder where the kids hang out when they skip school

On our second day, we woke up early to queue for half price muscial tickets at TKTS. GW was determined to watch Phantom of the Opera and I wanted Les Miserables but both tickets were sold out for the day. We were left with not much choices and opted for Grease instead.

and this is the stupid umbrella.

Lunch reservations at Gordon Ramsey's Maze restaurant. Wanted to go for Murano if not Claridges, but they were fully booked :( Anyway, our reservation was at 12 noon, and we were snapping pictures like some swakoo tourists while waiting to be seated at the lounge area. The ambience is not bad, i will rate 7/10. But the service is super impressive so 11/10.

 The tasting menu.. i rate 7/10.
Don't get trick by these food pictures, they actually came in very small portions.

our " Hello Ma, we are at Gordon Ramsey's restuarant!!!" pictures

Took a picture of The Selfridges while walking to Primark. And when I got there, it's like a war place packed with people and it's so hard to shop. See already want to faint. Pack your 百花油 if you are planning to head there. It will come in handy or better still, it might save a life.

We found quite a few good bargains and both our shopping at Primark sum up to 45 pounds.

Threw all our shopping bags in the room, and off we go again to Piccadilly for Grease!

Outside Piccadilly Theatre

The stage view from our seats.

GREASE ROCKS BIG TIME!!!!

I love the cast, they are so full of energy and the band is like super awesome. It's so shiok singing along with them and make me so wanna be part of them. Care-leh-fare role also OK!

Walked over to Chinatown for supper. And we were singing and humming songs from the musical while eating. It just got stucked in us.

It's new year's eve day and we went to check out TKTS for tickets to Phantom of the Opera. But they didn't have it, too bad for GW. And I'm wearing my £5 shoes from Primark.

London Chinatown.

Lunch at HK Cafe.

Haiss, why Karlskrona don't have Chinatown arh?

Our nom nom nom pictures. I thought i will go crazy and slurged all my $$$ on shopping but we almost 90% of our $$$ went to food. Diao.

Here we are cutting through a park to Oxford street and GW took so many pictures of me eating Po Lo Bao. Love you dear, continue taking pictures of me ok. I'm very vain one.

Winter Wonderland at Hyde park

The place is quite happening with christmas themed amusement rides, christmas market stalls, christmas lightings & a open air ice skating rink. We wandered around aimlessly and duno how we ended up inside Harrods which was terribly packed and we had to leave the place. Metro-ed to Chinatown and stocked up loads of snacks for our 2010 countdown in the hotel room. :)
