18 Dec 2007 (Tuesday): London

The target for the day was museums... Ah ha... the 2 well-known ones in the world: The British Museum and Madam Tussaud's Museum.

On the way, we dropped by one of the well-known areas in London, Nottingham Hill area... and discover an interesting mural :D

Then, we adjourned to Baker Street station. Another discovery! It's the oldest underground railway in the world! snap! snap!

Madam Tussaud's Museum

• Close encounter with celebrities... and idols...
• Apart from snapping photos with the celebrities, one more exciting one would be the "Live Horror Chamber"... er... there were some disgusting sights, too!

British Museum

• It's the 2nd time coming here... the first time was really a rush rush... but thanks to Shoo Soon who doubled up as a guide for the 3-hour orientation. It's like tracing the previous set of footsteps... :D
• Yes, shared with Chai Noi the key things I learnt from the previous visit - the Rosetta Stone and the Elgin rocks :D Ah ha, there's another piece of Rosetta Stone in the King's library that we can touch!!! (the one in the display area was put behind the glass)
• Yes, met Ginger again :D Also spent some time to look at the African art.

Covent Garden

• It really gave a different feel and look to the English society... It's bustling with life, with the festive flavour :D
