First of all I used my week of vintervacation on taking a little trip to England with one of my friends.
We had arranged that we first would spend a few days in London, at a hotel in waterloo and spend some time being real tourists. We walking around in London, saw big ben, went to Picadilly Circus and also to Chinatown. Oh yeah we also got on the London Eye :D Such a great view over London! I mean waow!
I love this picture! :) |
Oh well. After a few days in Lodnon we packed our bags and went for Cardiff. We are both Doctor Who fans, and since most of the series is shot there, there was no question about us going there ;) (actually that was the first thing we arranged for our trip). And of course we went on a tour around Cardiff with a guide that showed us lot's of places that have been used as scenes for the series. Actually we were pretty lucky with that tour! At first the tour should have been of foot, but then it was changed to be the bus tour instead. And we didn't have to pay more for it! Secondly, we also got the funniest tour guide we would get! He had met some of the actors before, and even Steven Moffat! He got loads of awesome and funny stories!
Of course we also went to see the Doctor Who Experience after that ;)
This is the door for a pub/bar in Cardiff! No kiddin! |
After we had spend some lovely days in Cardiff we got back to London again.
Now we went for Borough Market. I really got that old time London feel when we walked around that place. Under the trainrails, and with a bit of snow coming down. I felt like I was in London in the eighteenhundreds. After that we got loads of time on our hands so we went for a long walk to see Tower Bridge also before we had to go.
Now it was time for me to be a fangirl once more, as we went for Bakerstreet to see the Sherlock Holmes Museum.
It was so awesome! Afterwards we also found a pub on Bakerstreet where we got us a cider each. It was such a cosy place. Gotta get back there someday!
This trip was so great! But we knew we had to get back to old, stinky Denmark... It was such a chocker to get back. Snowed alot and well... as I said before... it stinks. Especially the train stations, and all the stinking. gross alchoholics there didn't help much either... I still have to get used to how rude people is in Denmark after meeting so many kind and polite english people... Oh well... I can tell you one thing. It's not the last time I have been to England!!
I will be back with more into on my trip. I will propably make a post only with pictures of the Doctor Who Experience :)
Yeah... I love London eye :D |
