Holiday Part 3 - London & Old Trafford

Third Stop: London + Manchester (Old Trafford)
Yep!! London! We are here because of Belinda my best pal. I have been wanting to visit her in London. Though it was a short stay, we had fun....at the Roast Duck stall, walking along Oxford St, going crazy at Primark (ahem), cooking teriyaki salmon don, watching The Lion King Musical & preparing food for picnic, posing with the happy frog mug (where both Derek and Belinda were pulled in to pose with the mug. HAHA.

Shall not bore u with those touristy photos. Just a few...

Buckingham Palace

Apple Store @ Covent Garden

Best coffee in London.
Just opposite Borough Market.

And of course a day at Old Trafford :)

High Tea in Harrods - Laduree

The Lion King Musical @ Lyceum Theater

BEST!!

Relaxing in Bel's backyard
Our morning 'picnic' with Choco Muffins and Lady Grey Tea in a happy frog mug!

Holiday Part 2 - Iceland

Second Stop: Iceland aka Island
A land of ice and fire! A population of about 320,000 in a 103,000 km2 land. More than half its population resides in the capital and its largest city - Reykjavik. Iceland is a part of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge and it is still forming new oceanic crust.

This is the farthest country we have or will ever travel, so we are pretty excited to see what is in store for us. I must say it felt like a National Geographic tour.

Seljalandsfoss Waterfall

Strokkur Geyser, which erupts every 5–10 minutes

Horse riding across the lava field.
And photo below is my horse grazing in the meadow. (Spot Derek in the background?)

Lava rock

Icelandic fish baked with potatoes + cheese.
Served with rye breads and salad.

More rye breads ... and cured Shark meat (small white cubes).
Acquired taste.

This is my fav part of the trip - Glacier Lagoon!
God's majestic creation.

Holiday Part 1 - Norway

It’s been awhile since we last blog. Life has been exciting. Just that we are lazy in blogging. Thanks to YOG, my campus was closed for the month of August, which means extra week to relax & enjoy! So here are some picture of our 2-weeks holiday in Norway, Iceland and London.

These posts are going to be brief (very brief). More pictures available in Derek's facebook.

First Stop: NORWAY
Norway is a place filled with inspiring architecture, beautiful fjords, mountains and coastal scenery. We love it!

One of UNESCO World Heritage Site - Bryggen

Sunset in Bergen. It was 9.50pm!

One of the fjords in Norway

Flam - A small town surrounded by steep mountainsides, waterfalls and deep valleys.

Salmon Salad (with lots of scrimps) cost S$30, exp but very shiok.

Things here are expensive (in comparison to Sg) A bottle of mineral water cost us S$5... It's atas real mountain water! hahaha
