Chapter 21.

Hello fellas! Long time no seen? Sorry for that. We just went trough our London-trip pictures (over 1000pics per camera...) and had some recovering time. Yes. We needed over the week for that.

So about our long long-awaited journey to London! We had 5 awesome days there with a good company (containing us, Jenni, Teodor, Aman and at times some other people). We are not going to tell everything with details, just some best memories. We walked and saw too much so it would be take ages to write everything down.

Let's start with our journey from Paisley to London. First we had to take train from Paisley to Glasgow and then we jumped into the bus which took us to our destination. Imagine about 10 hours of sitting on your ass without the possibility of moving anywhere off your seat. No proper place for your feet. All night of traveling like that. Sleeping was almost impossible thing to do..it was really uncomfortable and what a relieve it was to finally step up from the bus and breath "fresh" London air.

London is a huge city! After realizing that we are in London, we had to wait an hour more when bus finally reached the center. We bought Oyster cards and most of the time we traveled by tube or bus (because of some underground line closing). It took about 30min (or more) from our hostel to center and by tube just 10min. Thank god they fixed the line so we could use tube on our last days. 
Most of the time we just walked. Walked around big and small streets finding interesting things and places. I think we crossed every bridge in London center? From now on, we worship the creator of plasters and cold gel.

We were blessed having an awesome weather! It was sunny and warm. Perfect ingredients to feel happy and to enjoy everything. Usually we woke up at 8am, took a shower and headed for a breakfast. After we took a nap. About 11am we left our hostel to find some new adventures.

I think we saw every attraction which are associated with London (Minus Madame Tussauds.. Have to go back someday). Also we had some our own fun while finding some Banksy arts. If you are going to London, try to just walk around, turn on some small streets and you'll see other side of that city. You can find cool places or if you need a quiet place after rushing center, it's right thing to do. Don't be afraid to get lost! Nowadays everyone has navigation on their phone :D It is really useful, we can tell.

If something shocked us, that was the number of people. Oh lord.. We thought Glasgow had lots of them but no! That was a totally new level for us, for two small girls from freaking land of "people need at least one meter their own space". Funny thing is, do they have any real Brits in London? Or just tourists. Anyway. Beautiful place, even tho we thought everything would be much bigger and more great. (We kinda liked Edinburgh more..#scotland4ever).


We saw lot's of random things, like while walking on the street one guy was pointing on people saying "God loves you!". Apparently God loves us too yay. Also, I don't know how many time we saw birds fucking. Like c'mon, get a room! Alright, it is natural thing to do and well, birds like attention. but still Sorry for pictures.

London knows how to surprise. We went to see new Fast and Furious 7-movie and after trying to figure out how to get back to hostel at late time, we got into real action! There was some kind of race or just rich people showing their cars. (RACERACERACE !! Henna was like a child in the candy shop :D) We were pretty exited and atmosphere were great. All those people with phones and so much cool cars and so much noise.. Brilliant experience after really good movie! We couldn't ask for more, we were so lucky! God really loves us. (maybe the best part of the trip haha) (Yes it was !).

We had an opportunity to take a look at Londons nightlife. Just a small one. Pubs were closing really early.. Blaah.. But hey, no hangover next day. A day of shopping! Not even gonna say how much money we spent. Let's just say that a lot. Or let's just skip this part. Thank you Victoria's Secret !

Last day wasn't quite our day. At the morning Marina hit her head to locker door. Really hard (still hurts after these days (and I think I have a small hole there too..)), then while searching for the phone in a bag she walked straight to the lamp post... yes... like they do in a movies. After that Aman managed somehow to throw his glasses into her :D at her face. Wtf was wrong with this day! People just had accidents one after another.. At the restaurant waitress poured the glasses of cider on the table, things broke... etc. etc.

Overall, nice trip, nice city, nice people. Nice. And imagine the bus trip back home.. yep, same feeling as we described earlier. We really missed Scottish accent (Henna: Nah, not so much actually :D still mixed feelings about this country). In London, it was weird to understand what people were saying. Seriously. 

 Last week we also had to say bye to our dear flatmate Jenni :( She left Scotland, us. Fuck u school. We started missing you right after you left and it so strange that you are not here. But thanks for the food! We are not saying goodbye because we definitely will see you back in Finland! Don't worry :* xx
This put us to think that soon, everyone will go on their own way and we won't be flatmates anymore. Not seeing you guys everyday? How is that possible..We still have time bully each other ;) we will take all the joy out of this so be ready.

Next trip ahead on Saturday, tomorrow, when we're going to Newcastle.

More what we did you'll see in pictures(sorry there's like million of those, but enjoy):
