We've arrived London on the 1st May!

With me having one hell of a jet lag. My wife was ok but I felt like hell. A box of aspirin bought at Ealing Broadway fixed me up... phewww.... We stayed at Hilton Kensington in Holland Park for a total of 2 nights before our flight to Zurich. For dinner we ate nasi goreng bought from MARA place at Paddington. Zul (my brother in-law) and I went there walking thinking it was a short walk. Well, it wasn't. We walked 40 minutes straight. Any faster we'll have to run :) We decided to take a bus on the way back, fortunately.

Anyways, here's some pics


Flying in the airspace over Saudi Arabia, bordering Iraq in a Malaysia Airlines Boeing 747-400. The emptiness of space above and the emptiness of the desert below created this stunning picture.

Picture of us in front of Buckingham Palace.

We were fortunate enough to witness a first ever change of guards by the 1st Battalion, Royal Malay Regiment (Rejimen Askar Melayu Di Raja). First ever for them and us :)


We took a ride on the open top double decker tour bus around London. It was worth the £20 we paid for online. It includes a free cruise on the River Thames.
