Europe Trip Part 2 - Paris & London

Bienvenue!!

As promised, this entry is about Paris, France!
All my life I have dream of stepping foot to this country.
And at the age of 19 years old and 7 months my dream came true! woohoo! 5 countries more to go!
Though it was just for a couple of days, it really was an interesting experience.
Well, its a lil bit frustrating when the whole 3days I was there it freakkin rain everyday!
Instead of wandering around figuring out the routes and all, we took a tour bus to explore the city.

To sum it all up here are the pictures! :)

Paris Train Station


The tour bus that we took.








My most favourite shot.

The Opera.


Sadly there isnt any good photo of us shopping. Heck, I didnt even bother to snap any coz I was way too busy! :p

After 3 days of touring, its time to leave to Paris. We took the Eurostar train and head off to London.


LONDON

I cant remember how long it took us to get to London from Paris but I'm pretty sure it wasnt that long. lol.
We arrived at Ashford.






Otw to Buckingham Palace


St. James Park.


My sister wanted to feed the squirrel so bad that she actually made frens with these old man! Just to get the peanuts to feed the squirrel. lol.

Harrods!! :))



London Tower Bridge

Most boring thing to do.


Hyperness in the hotel room.


These are what i could sum up of my 2 weeks adventure in Europe :)

Europe Trip Part 1 - Switzerland

2 sem breaks ago, when I was all but dying of the monotonous & oh so predictable way I spend my sem break, I decided to make a new approach.
Yes it took me that long to figure it out.

After having dinner at TGI, the family headed back home. As usual Mummy and Daddy would be on their notebooks working. So, I went up to them and said we need to spend quality time together, as a whole family since all of us are always busy and I'm most of the time in Malacca. How about a change of scenery? I asked.
At that, Daddy puts away his notebook and looked at Mummy.
Having got their full attention..... I dropped the bom.
"How about a trip to Europe?"
Daddy gave it a thought for a while and said, "Sounds like a good idea. Il work on the budget and you tell Mummy when is your next break."

Woot! It was that easy! I actually got stunned (like how dumdum mirana stun me in dota just now) hearing that. lol.

After all the planning, shopping and stuffs we decided to go to Switzerland for a week and then drop by to Paris and London.

We left Malaysia to Switzerland via Singapore on 31st of May. After the dreadful 13hours flight we arrived in Zurich, Switzerland.
Apparently Switzerland is one of the World's Top Cleanest City. And i couldnt agree more! :)

There's too much to tell here. So, I'll just leave the pictures to do the talking.

Arrival in Zurich Airport, Switzerland.

After that we took a train to Brunnen. And then took a cab to Morschach where our Swiss Holiday Park Apartment is.
Just to give a rough idea on what Switzerland is..
The pictures below are from Brunnen, Morschach and Schwyz.
Apart from the other towns, these 3 places are also located on "The Swiss Trail". It is said that Switzerland actually originated from this trail.

The view from the balcony.

Around Morschach

Played go-kart near our place.
This is the best go-kart I've ever tried tho the track is quite small but its satisfying!
Super fast and super smooth!
I won the first round! Woot!


I lost here. :( My bro cut me at last minit. Deng~!


The pier in Brunnen


Schwyz


Schwyz

The famous original Swiss Army Knife Factory Shop : Victorinox
Schwyz
Bought my very own first Swiss Knife here! Rose Edition.

On the third day of our stay, we headed of to one of the most beautiful town, Luzern.
Luzern really took my breath away! its so beautiful the buildings and all..
and uhhh especially the people! XD


In front of Luzern train station


The view across the river.


Luzern famous mark "The Covered Walkway".

Instead of going back to Brunnen by bus, we decided to take the boat cruise back. This ride took about 2+ hours to reach Brunnen. All the way the view is reallllyyy realllyy breathtaking!

My brother, Hazeeq.

Me, Me & Me!

Mummy, bro and the gedik sister.


A majority of the houses here around The Swiss Trail is by the lakeside.
Sangat best! *jealous*


Syaz & Hazeeq

And finally the thing that I most looked forward to is the trip to Titlis!
Ye la.. tak pernah nak rasa snow kan.. other than the stupid genting snow world. LOL. so this is the time la.. hahaha..
mind you I was way too freakking excited bout it! XD


Midpoint of Titlis. Here itself is already 2 degrees Celsius.


The view from the Titlis Rotair. Its like a cable car only that it can rotate 360 so that u can see the view around the place without moving. That lake is the above picture.

At the peak. Its -2 or maybe -1 degree Celsius here. I forgot. You cant see anything when the clouds are covering. Not even whats 20metres away! Kinda scary at first tho. huhuh.


On the Skyflyer to Glacier Park on Titlis. Freezing dowh!!

Had a snowball fight right after this shot. It was caught on video. The video is not with me at the moment :(


After the trip to Titlis i couldnt help but to wonder when I see some quizzez on FB or sth they ask whats your favourite/like season. And I saw a majority of Malaysian answered Winter. I wonder have they even felt whats it like in winter? Its freezing! Its wet if its not the dry type of snow. Ur nose, fingers, toes and ears feels like its dropping off. In conclusion: Its so not comfy! So to the people who never felt this weather before and says that they like winter..... hmph! I better not say..

Okay back to my trip. Last day in Switzerland and its Zurich!
Not much picture was taken coz my brilliant brother forgot to charge the battery!
Here we're taking a train to Paris.


Zurich Train Station.


And we're off to PARIS!


Next post would be on Paris.
More pics on Facebook.
.xoxo.

Rain rain come again. Really..

Rain, how wonderful that sound. Those heavenly waters that grace themselves down from the sky so touch the earth in a symphony of droplets. All this appreciation is totally from the mad weather here. Its been so humid here lately to a point that I might just internally combust due to excess body heat. First of the fires in the forest in the neighbouring country had heated things up, and it is this time that mother nature decides to blow the wind with all the heat, smoke, dust, debries, and what-nots here. So here comes the dillema. To cool myself down, I would turn on the aircond. By doing that, I have just contributed in global warming and would eventually suffer as well. Hmmm. Guess I'll leave future me to worry about that. *reaches for aircond remote*
