London Eye
Who came up with the idea for this one? Who? I like the person who did. A big ass ferris wheel looking thing....high tech space bubble seats....I love it! A panoramic view of London in all its glory. That's hot! Me and Traci's made our separtate ways to Waterloo station in order to see the Eye yessterday at 530. Amazing how such "tight" security there is...they managed to confiscate my ice cream (doesn't match with Italy's gelato's sorry to say!) and Traci's bookbag with her laptop in it (she was coming from the library) but they somehow forgot to check out tickets! We could have just not paid at all! Well, it was worth the 1125 we paid online to do it.....I loved it! We took some fantastic pics uf eachother with London views behind us.....and laughed at our pickiness and prefectionism...and how that all lead us to take about 25 pictures in a hour time frame. I have to admit, I DO go overboard with pics, I really do. Like, "everything is a picture" like I just cannot not snap that shutter because if I don't I will never get a chance to view the moment again. Yeah, it is that serious.Traci is a really funny person. I think that we will have fun in Paris.....she always seems to know where she is going too...good sense of direction, versus me who just happens to "wander" upon things, luckily. Anyway, it was about 615 when we done with the ride. I was ready to head back home, and hit up Kensey's friend chicken place on the way back (that chicken is SO addicting, has made some other sick, but not I-lol) anyway, Traci says that she doesn't want to go on the tube because it is "rush hour" she really does have this thing about being on the tube with crowded people and the bus as well (which we later took much to her chagrin-lol) so, we decided to just wanlk around, as the Westminster bridge, Parliament, and Westminster Abbey is all the inmmediate vicinity. I love London. Everything is just right there! Anyway, we walk along, take some shots....it was fun. We then hop on the district line....crowded as hell!
Anyway, we get off, at Mile End and at this point I have managed to convince her that Kensey is the place to eat at. But then, she gets a good idea "lets go down to the Hayfield and get a cheap meal...mash and sausages for 225!" I look at her "really?" The Kensey was calling me, but a cheap meal that was actually filling called me further. So we hop on the bus to the Hayfield (pub where smokers and cider mix) we eat and get our meal (w/ gravy! Gravy!!!!!) hoping on the crowded bus with me having a stomache ache as well as the bus juts back and forth.
It was a nice evening all in all. :-)
