14. Second day: Friday
The second day we came back down to breakfast early, but as usual Elena and Diego came a little later. Meanwhile others were asking, and this time we asked how we wanted the eggs, so when the girl came to bring us coffee José Luis said in perfect English if he could get Lepe scrambled eggs instead of fried. Not if they already had fried eggs when asked and had to throw or what, but I got the feeling that was funny not because it was like grumbling and I think it was pooping in our dead.
José Luis, as usual, ate three toast I eat at the expense of only one, the very asshole. And nothing else to note ... put on the boots after breakfast we hit the streets willing to spend a little more the soles of shoes.
15. Buckingham Palace
We give a little walk to Buckingham Palace, which was not far from the hotel, intending to see the changing of the guard, but when we arrived it was not until 11:30 and had still a couple of hours with what we just see the palace from the outside, reaching the conclusion that it is not hard as a palace, making us the required pictures and get out to see other things.
16. Westminster, Big Ben, Parliament, the London Eye and the Chipmunks
On the way to Westminster Abbey where we passed a small park has
Bia a farmhand feeding squirrels. He made us laugh because the bugs took her hand pipes with confidence and ran to bury them there. José Luis asked the type of pipes if you could give some to try to give them it to the squirrels, but should be Scottish Julaia because he would not drop or a pipe with the excuse that it was dangerous because the squirrels gnawed and it almost tear off a finger and no more than mental straws. Total, which stood there with the Agarrao their pipes and we at least with some photos.
We reached the door of Westminster Abbey and we find it plated and a sign with opening hours in front of the door. It is open every day except on Sundays, but on Friday closed, I guess being the first day of Passover (I think there call it Good Friday), we also aim. Good thing going around the block in the back of the abbey, apart from having a beautiful facade covered in ivy is a small door that leads to the cloister, and that really was open so we could see but. A very beautiful cloister, reminiscent of the movie of Harry Po
tter, especially when some kids walked by with a captain who does not know if the choir would be going to class or defense against the dark arts or what ...
were looking at the gravestones on the floor (It's all full of people buried there, as in the movie Poltergeist) and statues of famous people, soldiers, priests, and that, had the walls, and José Antonio looking at a of them asked who the hell would the breadwinner, and whether it would be famous as the inventor of the handle for left or what: D
After the photos and do some clown out there, we departed and we went to
Across the river to ourselves pictures with Big Ben and Parliament in the background.
Then we went to see the London Eye, a huge Ferris wheel (apparently the highest in the world) instead of trays has a oval glass booths that turns very slowly, almost imperceptibly. Its function is to provide an overview of London from more than 130 meters. We went up because apparently you must book in advance, or pay almost 30 pounds per head (45 euros) if you buy the tickets at the site, and it seemed a little expensive. The next time we go reserve.
17. Downing Street, Trafalgar Square and National Gallery
the way to Trafalgar Square we Downing Street, which is the street where, at number 10, British Prime Minister lives. But we were a bit deluded if we thought that was accessible to the street peacefully, as it is enclosed by a fence and if you can not see in any circumstance. Total, we spent long and we got to Trafalgar Square.
Trafalgar Square is a fairly large square, whose center is Nelson's Column and the background the art museum known as the National Gallery, where you can see for example the famous painting by Van Gogh's Sunflowers . " We kept to
ndon photos in the square and José Luis and I saw that people were coming up to the lions that are at the foot of the column Nelson and decided to do the same. We hope to come down a Catalan who had one of the lions and then we went up. José Luis gave a Rodeito to increase the lion by his side and I preferred encararmarme the back, which I thought was safer, though I had to help one of the Catalans pushing me a little, because the lion slips fucking bad thing and not is to grip.
After a while the clown to the lions, we went into the National Gallery, which was the only museum we visited where not allowed to take pictures or record video with the camera. We did a quick little turn and went to eat.
18. Eating at the Salisbury Pub
We went to eat at this pub that we recommended the brother of Diego. Beautifully decorated, very friendly waitress and this did have toilet!. In addition, the staircase leading down to the
s services had the entire wall covered with old advertising signs, which gave a very interesting touch. The pub food was fine ... without being to shoot rockets. Those who asked were roast beef are the most unhappy, because it was a bit sosillo. Others called it looks like burgers were quite good, and others ask us Chicken Kiev, which was delicious, though somewhat limited. Not if Diego was wrong to ask the waitress or rolled, but the fact is that we put a Chicken Kiev for more, but as if we had put 5 more ... it quickly disappear. This pub
I first tried the Heinz ketchup and I have to admit I liked it a lot, considering I do not like ketchup.
19. Nap time, fatigue is beginning to feel
seeing things I would have followed, but the others were tired and sore feet and wanted to return to the hotel to rest a bit, so I agreed and we did. On the way we saw a bar called La Tasca English. I was amused to find a bar as well, with posters advertising beer, wine, tapas and paella. : D
While Diego and I watched the plane to see which combination best came away by subway to go to the hotel, or maybe a bus came to us, we approached a very nice old lady with 100% English side to ask if we needed help. Diego asked about the underground and the old lady told us to best use the bus, because there are several lively metro lines shut down and such. We said bus line and had to take everything with great sympathy. That grace the old woman, was tempted to take home, that face was wrinkled but with a twinkle in his blue eyes and a smile so sweet ...
Anyway at the end of the bus and we went back to get into the subway. Indeed there was a poster where the lines came were cut, but they were not whole lines but only a few stretches of a few lines. Not affected us to reach our destination so we went back to get a One Day Ticket and we went to the hotel.
Upon entering our room the heat was impressive. Luckily there was a cabinet above the dusty fan-looking take years unused. I plugged it and we could take a couple hours of nap chilly that the truth came to us very well. Meanwhile, in Almería had become the winter and almost never stopped raining. The world upside down!
20. Tate Modern
I feared that, knowing my buddies, once they had lashed the bed does not take them out of there or boiling oil, but surprisingly at 5 and a half as we had been, were emerging from their dens. The goal of the evening was approached to see the Tate Modern, and incidentally have a eyelet for St. Paul's Cathedral which is nearby, to see if we could get to her. I fucked the cathedral because it was closed, but at least we saw the outside and we took the obligatory pictures.
The Tate Modern is a modern building, filled with modern art and modern people. In my opinion, is an ugly building like hitting a parent, like a renovated industrial building. And the art is inside what might be called between ugly and very ugly, but there are works that are for my taste reach the category of "so horrific that you feel like to tear your brain with teeth." Besides having
escalators that go directly from first to third floor, bypassing the second (it looks that this is "modern"), there are a few tubular slides (c'mon, a "tubolanes") ranging from some plants to the ground floor and for which you can pull up paying a few pounds. What of the slides was curious, but we ran out to try them because the queue had to throw us off his win ...
On the top floor was a sort of bar where they served beer and tapas unpleasant aspect we did not dare to try. In short, a place where at least us a laugh with the "works of art displayed, and the mess that we got to the escalators, but otherwise quite forgettable ...
21. Thai dinner in Soho
As dinnertime approached, we headed to Soho in search of a Thai restaurant called Tuk Tuk who recommended the brother of Diego. When we got the truth is that not what we expected to find, since I at least expected a site style Chinese restaurant, lavishly decorated with an exotic and what we found was an ordinary local who looked like a fast food place. But since we were there, and we were told we would have to wait about 10 minutes until they were empty tables.
passed 10 minutes, we sit and pray. The letter had a lot of things, many of them with rice or noodles. Diego's brother in law told us that the soups were put there biggie, so Jose Antonio, with his usual gluttony called nosequé soup and noodles as well. We drink beer almost every one Thai (Thai beer), but the waiter understood Tiger and that is what brought us. But just as the Tiger was a Thai beer, so everything perfect.
The food was good, although not to shoot rockets. Some complained it was a little bland, but my noodles were fine. José
Antonio
was a show that brought the soup, that was not a bowl ... this was a kettle! was the size of a urinal, and on top was spicy soup. Have seen it done eating the soup powder, red as a tomato and sweating ... In the end, and for the first time in history, food won the game and had to surrender and leave a little soup, and almost all the noodles that had been requested. At this point there is a before and after the visit of Jose Antonio at Tuk Tuk ... since then, would never be the same. The singers write songs and legends about the event, and reflected in the history books. : D
Leaving Tuk Tuk of us caught a black despollandose of laughter that should go pretty full man. For me I wanted to get us hand in the portfolio, with a roll of laughter and cachondeito, so we got rid of him as we could and we headed to Chinatown.
22. Chinatown
This neighborhood has a nice
Chinese arc lights on one of the streets that provide access, and apart from that there are many Chinese out there floating around, and lots of shops and Chinese restaurants. I had the monkey to eat chocolate so I got into a little shop I saw and found I had lots of chocolate things, including a variety of types of sticks such as the Mikado, but with different flavors, different types of chocolate, sizes, etc ... Come on, stick-Mora ME got those. Buy a fat that had 2 kinds of chocolate, one over another, they were really good, and others of white chocolate with honey, which also were to be out ...
there also gave us a little murga a beggar asking for money, but we got rid of him quickly and went to give the rod to another.
23. Picadilly Circus
When we get tired of going around in Chinatown (which is not there much to see there), we went to Picadilly Circus. This is the place that is always seen in pictures or in movies, which has a building covered with huge electronic billboards advertising various brands. In addition, there is what I believe is the largest Virgin Megastore in the world, and especially great, lots of people everywhere.
Since there was a nearby Planet Hollywood entered the merchandising store which is on the ground floor and then up to the restaurant to look around a bit and make us photos with the statue of Terminator, Excalibur or armor.
also curious a little souvenir shop next door was there, and then try to enter the Virgin Megastore, but it was closed already, so we took the subway and headed back to Victoria Station. From there we went to take the penultimate cerquita pint at a pub hotel and then to rub, which is already well ...
José Luis, as usual, ate three toast I eat at the expense of only one, the very asshole. And nothing else to note ... put on the boots after breakfast we hit the streets willing to spend a little more the soles of shoes.
15. Buckingham Palace
We give a little walk to Buckingham Palace, which was not far from the hotel, intending to see the changing of the guard, but when we arrived it was not until 11:30 and had still a couple of hours with what we just see the palace from the outside, reaching the conclusion that it is not hard as a palace, making us the required pictures and get out to see other things. 16.
