Ailie im Wunderland 2 - London Special

As I have said in my blog, I went to London for a weekend right before my written exam for some research matters (the detail sounds somehow too weird to tell, so I skip it...). And here are some photos taken.

Indeed I enjoyed the trip much as it was not really shopping-oriented, but somehow spontaneous -- I can stop by anywhere I want, see anything which interests me, eat anything I want, and hesitate as long as I can (as usual)...

And back from London my knapsack was full of English groceries...

A walk from Holbon
After a morning's research of .... Underground announcements I started my trip from Holbon. Here is the BBC Headquarters The Hotel Savoy, the first house lit by electricity in the world.
As a start I should plug myself in a big mug of black tea first...
Covent Garden
Then comes to the Covent Garden The centre of stages...
All these interesting street performers
Jubilee Market right next to Covent Garden This confectionery shop interests me...
The Royal Theater in Covent Garden Something English: the red telephone boothes
The Royal Ballet School..... the footbridge just caught my attention A dancing girl, or?

What's About: Because I need to record some material for my thesis I flew to London for a weekend: joined car-sharing from Bayreuth to the budget-airport Hahn, then fled to Stansted, and rushed to London and spent a night in a hostel, then start my Underground trip early in the morning. Apart from Underground I had rides with the Roadmasters (the famous old double deckers) to some non-tourist areas in London too.

After the weekend trip I took the train back to Stansted, spent a night at the airport (with some 500 other persons, ha ha), and caught the flight back to Hahn early in the morning.... back the Germany I took a nap at the airport again until P picked me up and showed me his hometown....
