HARROD'S LONDON, UK
harrods deparment store, owned by ALfayid, bf of diana. There is a donut shop here that is very delicious.
Meat shop inside harrods, me the miss piggy, hehe
Me shopped too at Harrods. I bought donuts! LOL . Inside Harrods there are lots to see and buy, even all the jewelries, all types. But shocking ang price! Natakot ako! I find also staffs that are Asiatics, selling Chinese products.The taxi of London, In black and looks like a car model of the fifties.I find the goods very expensive, so we just stay for coffee and donuts and move to Kensington Palace.
The Kensington Palace:
The kensington palace, the Kings grandstaircase, the ballroom dance floor and the dresses.Displays in the rooms introduce many people who have lived in the apartment ove the years, including various senior courtiers, the Duke of Sussex,Prince Louise, HRH The Princess Margaret and Lord Snowdon.The tour offers the unique glimpse of life of the previous occupants in the Palace. Very nice to be here, I feel like I am the Queen too! Hehe
Going to the State apartments where the King and Queen formerly lives.The series of rooms explores pageantry and etiquette surrounding court occasions and explains how tailors and dressmakers made those luxurious dresses and gowns. The displays includes also lavish ebroidered court suits and sparkling court dresses as well as modern clothing worn by living members of the royal family.
At Kensington Palace where Diana lives with her boys. Here is the gate where the flowers are offered when she died, all roads are covered of offered flowers.
BUCKINGHAM PALACE
(Where the Queen of England lives)
this is the whole of the buckingham palace where the Queen lives and where the events of the Palace took place.
buckingham palace, sunny sunday today, at the background, three japanese tourists joining me by waving their arms up. The weather is a bit cold, so i bought this pink GAP windstopper coat and Michel likes the cut, we looked for one but didnt find one.We didnt went inside as it was still close, but I saw the guard in red uniform and flurry hat really do not move!Fascinating!
Lola Francesca, in her newly bought bagets Gap bag. Pili by sisters , at bagay raw! sige na nga, kahit mahal, kasi branded. Mind you sa Pinas, maybe half the Price na lang.And the silly Japanese young boys at the back are still stealing my limelight.

Jori, sad to say, kurips ang Lola, hindi bumili sa harrods, natakot ako sa presyo! Donuts and bread na lang binili ko para paglabas, may plastic man lang ng Harrods na dala! Dami ata Pinoys sa loob! pa ek ek bah! LOL
Sa Gap Shop ako namili, pero not so so lang: Gap white bag,pink coat, and two long sleeve cotton blouse.
Sa Marks and Spencer naman ang pasalubong kong Cotton Jacket kay Michel, pero sobra na init sa Nice, when I arrived!Kaya no use.
But the best buy na nabilhan namin, is in Primark Department Store, in Hammersmith.
Doon ang mura talaga, parang SM siya sa Pinas.
Mga pang summer pants,Blouse and skirts, 5 pounds lang!Sexy sandals, 13 pounds, gamosa shoes,(pink ang biege )bili ko for work, 10 pounds lang.
Na shock ako sa presyo, kaya madness shopping ang Lola.
Tawa ng tawa ang mga kafatids koh!
Tuloy nag extra luggage ako back to France.Buti hanggang 32 kgs ang allowed ni Easyjet!
When arrived, sabi ni Michel: what! how did you carry all these! We agreed to shop in Phils!
Inis na naman Lolo! He he he!
Kasi mostly akin ang nabili ko, kanya, medyas lang! LOL

Mukhang nag enjoy ka talaga, you look pretty in pink. Sarap talaga pag magbonding ang kapamilya, you've got nice pics ha. para narin akong nakarating ng London.
Marie, one day, you will. Its just a matter of time.
And prayer.
Topped with a bit of being ambitious and perseverance.
Yan na, advice ng lola, go for it, you will have it.

Natakot ako sa English breakfast, di ko talaga kaya yan. Yesterday nga I cooked risotto in butter and vegies also in butter. After eating para akong nasuka.
Anyway, I enjoyed the pics, I like the one in the train. Buti nga yung train mo okay, ibang british trains ang hahaba ng lamesa at ang liliit ng space in between your legs. I wonder how these huge brits can fit in?!
