London here we go!!!

One more great adventure!
And what an adventure...!


It all started when we realised that we bought the bus tickets, from Standsted Airport to the center of London, for the wrong hour.

Lucky us that they let us pass without having to buy a new one.
A long trip to the center and another one walking through the Hyde Park to get to the hostel.

This is the second time that i'm in London and it seems that will be a whole new adventure! 


Our hostel... It seemed a good hostel when we booked but when we arrived there we didn't want to believe... The entrance was for a basement, all with a horrible and dirty air and the bunks had no stairs. We left our things there and we went away really fast.


On this day we went to the house of Freddy Mercury (or door because you can not enter...), we passed trought the Museum of Natural History, the Harrods, the Hamleys, the M&M's store, Piccadilly Circus, we had dinner at Pizza Hut and after we went to see the Trafalgar Square and the Big Ben!

It was a really great day!

We return to the hostel by walk and when we arrived we couldn't walk more!!


The second day was amazing!!!

All of them were but this one were really special for me!
Me and Mariana Gomes went to the "Warner Bros Studio Tour - The Making Of Harry Potter"!  

I'm a big fan of Harry Potter! It can be said that is a thing of my childhood ( it is not that i am too old but 15 years is more than half of my life... :p).

It was like being in the movie!!
And i learned a lot on this visit.

Goodbye!!! 

 


The third day!
We spend the day the three together again!

We went to the Tower of London and the Tower Bridge!


 

 

 

We visited the S. Pauls Cathedral and we saw a parade for the liberty of the British Soldiers.


 

   

 


 


 

And after that we had lunch, we went to Hardys shop, the London Eye, the Big Ben, to the Buckingham Palace and the S. James Park to lie down a bit on the grass!
The day was really sunny! So good!!


 


 

 

 


 

 


We walked a lot in that day but when we arrived to the hostel at night we found some Portuguese people and some Spanish ones that lived there and we spend a lot of time playing cards and talking!
A very nice night!!


Our Portuguese friend from London...
 On the last day we just bought some souvenirs and walked through the Hyde Park again to take the bus to the airport...


Until one day London!
