London #3 | Travel Diary

For our last day in London, my friend and I decided to try the Emirates Air Line. The Emirates Air Line crosses the River Thames between Greenwich Peninsula and the Royal Docks. We then travel to Stratford to meet up with my uncle and our friend. We decided to go to Westfield in White City, London to go and look for a dress I could wear for the 18th birthday we would be attending after our London trip. But, while we were on our way I saw a sign that says 'Notting Hill'. I am a HUGE fan of the movie, I mean, who isn't right? I have always wanted to go to Notting Hill and go to the locations where they shoot the film and our friend found out how obsessed I am with the film, and how I have always wanted to go there. 

Instead of going straight to Westfield we decided to stop and walk around Notting Hill. We didn't really have much time to go to all the locations so we picked one. We decided to go to the library. Going to Notting Hill was never part of the plan, but it definitely was the highlight of my London trip. Notting Hill was such a beautiful place, and I would one hundred percent go back. After walking around the place, we took a bus to go to Westfield. We had lunch before I started looking for a dress, it took me so long to find a dress that I like. I got the dress in New Look. We all went back to the apartment after to rest before driving back to North Wales. We left London at 1:00 am, and arrived at my uncle's place around 6:00 am. 

This is the last article of my UK travel diary. Thank you for reading, and I hope you all liked it!

London #2 | Travel Diary

During our first night in London, I booked myself a ticket for the London Eye (also known as the Millennium Wheel), the London eye is the biggest Ferris wheel in Europe. I would totally recommend you to try it if it is your first time in London. The ticket that I booked was just a normal one, I thought I wouldn't need to queue up if I booked my ticket online. This is because while I was booking it, it made me choose a time so I thought I just need to show up on time and then it would be all good. But, obviously I was wrong. The queue was so long and it was so hot, so it was either I upgrade my ticket or just forget about it. I really really want to try and experience it, so I upgraded my ticket.

We went to see the Tower Bridge after. We were all tired after all the walking we did so after taking pictures, we sat down and bought drinks and snacks. We then continued on with our journey, and went to King's Cross Station to see Platform 3/4. I've watched all the Harry Potter movies so I was so excited to take pictures. My whole family is obsessed with the Harry Potter films too, so I was a little upset that they weren't there with me. After taking so many pictures and walking around the Harry Potter shop at King's Cross Station, we decided to go to Harrods. I got my mum a green Harrods shoulder bag. We spent so much time walking around Harrods that we forgot to check the time. It was already too late for us to go anywhere, so we headed back to the apartment and had dinner.
