of Jameson Whiskey and London Baby

As much as I tried to work hard, I traveled hard as well. Due to financial constrain, I gave up on visiting Rome and Ancona but I'm sure opportunities will come by again. My thoughtful boyfriend did mentioned about sponsoring my trip but trips are different without him. When the opportunity comes, I'll discover the Vatican city, Colosseum, and the beautiful beach of Ancona with him, my signore :)

I am absolutely bad with alcohol, within 5 minutes and you'll see my face flushing red with the AJ (Alcohol Jacket). It did when I visited the Jameson Whiskey distillery and got my diploma in whiskey tasting. Jameson is much smoother than scotch and american whiskey. The difference will be the American whiskey, ie. JD, only distilled once; the scotch, twice while Jameson, trice.





That was a Sunday. On the following Thursday, I flew off to London and the trip was fabulous! I was flying with Ryannair and so I had to travel very light and I'm proud with the fact that I fit everything in just one backpack. We visited a bunch of boring museums, major sight seeing places like Marble Arch, Big Ben, House of Parliament, Trafalgar Square, Westminster Abbey, Tower of London, London eye, Shakespeare Globe, Tate Museum, London Bridge, Tower Bridge, Buckingham Palace,Camden Market and Oxford st for more shopping. I went to the ICE BAR and watch the "Sister Act" musical as well. The underground seems very confusing at first, after a while its just really straight forward and convenient to get around on it.

Burrrr............

Now, my wallet is officially bleeding, with cash flowing out like blood gushing out. I'm still looking forward towards Dublin and Giant Causeway in Northern Ireland. Queen Elizabeth, you should thank me, i'm that person that keep your country's economy going.

Later :)
