8 new things I did in London
Been to London for the third time made me bored planned for something new especially for my family first time in London. I really made a list and google and read Trip Advisor reviews for my trips.
*proud of my homework
=Below are my new experiences=
2. Took a city cruise from Westminster to Tower Pier.
Again, thank God, this is free, using Tesco vouchers *ahem, want to earn vouchers in UK, find me and I will teach you. The cruise ticket normally costs £8.40 per adult, student £5.88
5. Went up to 4th floor Egyptian Hall, Harrods to see Pet Kingdom
# to get to Harrods: stop at Knightsbridge station (exit Harrods, Brompton road)
We saw dogs on treadmills and haircut session but no pictures allowed inside.
Review: The newest Travelodge branch in London (they have lots). The family room is very big, but only one small window for ventilation. Nvm, we are happy enough to have a standing fan and new bathroomto compensate the window issue. We are so happy to enjoy free wifi at the lounge area.
#Highly recommended

1. Took the London Eye capsule with mom and bro. I feel so happy cos we have free rides, thanks to my accumulated Leisure vouchers. If not, it would cost us £18.90 each.
One word to describe it: awesome
Inside each capsule, there are several Samsung tablets displaying the London attractions
Big Ben looks so small from the top
This is the most amazing view from the top *shining light from God

The Tower Bridge (tourists always call it London Bridge)
3. Wore a transparent raincoat.
4. Hugged a tree with my brother.
5. Went up to 4th floor Egyptian Hall, Harrods to see Pet Kingdom
# to get to Harrods: stop at Knightsbridge station (exit Harrods, Brompton road)

6. Paid a visit to Dodi and Diana's memorial located at the lower ground Egyptian Hall, Harrods.
7. Visited Westminster Cathedral and stunned by its beauty inside.
# to get there: stop at Victoria tube station, turn right when come out from the station, keep walking past the traffic light until you come across a McD, then turn right and you will see this amazing church
8. Stayed in Travelodge Waterloo.
# to get there, stop at Waterloo station (exit Waterloo road), turn right and walk straight for 7 minutes

Paris part 3
Lock your love along the Seine river
Pantheon
Luxembourg Garden
French are smart to put spikes onto the statues to prevent the birds from resting and pooping there
Saw a tourist guide explaining this statue to others so I thought maybe this is someone worth remembering
Saw a pretty lake beside the green statue
You must try the croissant in Paris (cost 1 euro)
Nutella and banana crepe
You can only get this in Amorino shop (behind our rented accommodation). Buy a cone and pay (I bought a medium sized cone for 4.50 euro). Then choose as many flavours as you like and the girl there will shape it into a flower for you.
So tempting
We are spoilt with a lot of choices behind our accommodation
The souvenir shop near Eiffel Tower
The view from Palais de Chaillot
