King's Cross, Baker Street & London Bridge

Hey Peoples :)
I've been meaning to put up this post for ages, but I don't have my laptop over here in England and its hard to get time to do it.


Well, this post is just a few photos of my last trip to London.
I revisited Covent Garden... seeing as it's a lovely place to just hang out for a while. The day was mostly done in a rush though, with seeing different places, so when I get back after Summer I'll be returning back here to Covent Garden, so I can take everything in.



London bridge was perhaps one of my favourite places to see. The bridge itself is beautiful, but I liked how I got sit down with my lunch on the lawn and take in the whole site. I was so lucky to get the marvellous weather as well. The blue sky made the city prettier, making the buildings pop out.






It's pretty impossible to get a 'normal' picture of my brother... takes after my Dad. I now see why there's no family pictures hung up around my house back in Ireland. We'd scare the guests.






This was my second time returning back to the 'Sherlock Holmes Museum' at Baker Street... heehee, but sadly there were no tickets on sale... the place was so busy. So I bought some little souvenirs and tried on some hats instead.

I'm sooooooo excited for the third season of 'sherlock'. Thank God for television :)








And what else can measure up to sherlock........ Uhhh.... Harry Potter of course. So me and my friends visited King's Cross Station. I felt like one of those scary fans.... "Ooh, that tower is from the second movie..." and then can you believe it, we almost missed the gift shop. I bought myself a Harry Potter key chain and 9 3/4 train ticket. I left the station feeling pretty great.














I feel stupid not knowing that I was standing behind Buckingham Palace... and it was the next site that was on our list. Might I say, I bloody hate the maps around the city. It's better to have one of your own i think.










I really liked this shot when I took it. There were so many cyclists around. And the lane itself gave a 'Pride & Prejudice' feel to it.



I hope you enjoyed these pics, and if you have any questions about where I visited, 
ask away.
Tomorrow I'm heading to the 'Harry Potter Warner Bros. Studios' in Watford. So if I get the time, I'll post up a blog about it.

Thanks for reading :D

30 Day Snap #24 | Cadburys, Sherlock & Superman


Hey there,
 How there, how do you do? Well I had an exciting day today lads, it was a tiring start at first, but it turned out pretty damn awesome.

Me and my brother Aran, and my best friend Edel went shopping today, and to the cinema. We found a Cadburys shop, and got some boxes of chocolates. The best thing about these is that they're all strawberry flavoured ones... my fave's :)

And then we wandered along 'Waterstones' book shop, trying to look like teenagers around the teen books... like when we're in our 30's we'll still be hanging around there.
Then after dragging my friend out from the shop, heehee, only kidding, but she does love books, we then hit HMV, and became very happy and sad all at the same time. It's a horrible experience while shopping. I'm waiting to buy stuff just before I head back to Ireland, that way I'll have my money for important things like London and Harry Potter Studios. So I left 'The Mentalist', the lovely Simon Baker, and 'Australia', on the shelves... it broke my heart :(

But on a good note, my brother did buy 'Sherlock' Season 1 and 2. I'm a huge fan of Sherlock. I loved the movies, and according to my brother I will no doubt love this series. WOO HOO... can't wait :D

Theeeen, we saw 'Man of Steel' in the Odeon cinema, adverts went on for a half an hour, but for some odd reason, I didn't mind it. The movie was great, because of it's cast and of the guy playing Superman, and of it's score in the background, and of the guy playing Superman, oh and of the guy playing Superman. He barely had anything to say in the movie, he would just gaze in the distance and would have us hooked, the girls that is... the guys were probably content with the amount of action in the movie. Seriously, every 10 minutes there was an explosion. The story tweaked around a little so I'm looking forward to the next one.

Let me know guys what other movies are worth watching, whether in the Cinema, or on DVD :)
