Wimbly Lu



 I finally got a chance to try Wimbly Lu yesterday, it had been on top of my wish list for quite some time yet i could not find time to go and try it. I ordered a salted caramel ice-cream with waffle with a cup of iced honey lemon, my friends ordered a honey cinnamon ice-cream with pancakes and the other one ordered a plain crepes.

     The ambience is really nice with music playing on the background, we sat at the back where we are able to see the sky through the glass roof, which is really nice actually. The waffle is crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside and complements really well with the ice cream as the ice cream is able to fill into the crevasse of the waffle. Will definitely go back again to try their other desserts too, they also have really friendly staffs there as well.

London


   After staying in Cambridge for almost a week, it is time to take a cab to London to continue on my UK trip.  The journey was around 2 hours plus due to the heavy traffic so i reached London around 6pm plus. We proceed straight to our hotel in London which is Berjaya Eden Park Hotel, and check in and unload our luggage. After that we went out to get dinner. The hotel is really good as it is really close to the tube station, it is just opposite the tube station. Around the hotel there is tons of eatery and also a wide variety, ranging from thai to chinese to lebanese to persian food. There is also lots of shop selling souvenirs as cheap as 99p.

     The next day, we went out early and arrive at our first destination, the tower bridge. We paid for the admission ticket, and went up to take a closer look at the tower bridge. The bridge took 8 years to finish, used 30,000 tons of stone and cost £1,184,000 to build. 10 men died during its making and the walk way is 42 meters above the thames. In the middle of the walk way, the path is change and is made of glass, so while walking on the glass you can see things that is happening below the bridge. The glass is also only 6cm thick but yet is stronger than the wooden path way.

     After the tower bridge, my mum and i went to have lunch, we had fish and chips with a cup of latte. After lunch, we went into the tower of london to see the royal jewel such as the coronation spoon, and the different crowns worn by different kings and queen. It was an eye opener for me, and it was really magnificent. 




Nicest soft serve ice-cream.




The monument.

    Then, we walked down to the monument that commemorate the great fire in london. The monument is really tall, it is standing tall at 62 meters and you can only reach the top by climbing, it is around 311 steps to the top of the observatory and the steps is the spiral type. But the stairway is really narrow and you will still have to give way to people that is coming down. We did not manage to climb to the top as we were a bit dizzy after climbing for a while, it may be because we keep looking down at our steps.
Marble Arch

Oxford street.

The next day we went to see the Big Ben, Westminster abby and the Buckingham Palace. We also went to chinatown and oxford street. Oxford street is similar to Orchard road with big brands and names. There is also a Primark there, which sells insanely cheap stuff ranging from clothes, makeup and many more. Things were as cheap as £1!!!
