Europe Trip

2008-08-02T07:19:00.000-07:00

First of all, let us welcome you to our page!

We are so excited to have the chance to travel and opportunity to see what the world has to offer and we'd like to share this precious moment with our families and friends with our pictures and small video clips as we get on with our journey. This trip will start from London, United Kingdom and end at Rome, Italy.

Day 1: Discovery Day!

This has been an excitement day from the start. As soon as, we have landed in the U.K soil we have been busy trying to figure out the U.K railway system. There are some arguments to whom knowing more but at the end we have compromised and get our railway pass to the see the land of the BIG BAN.

Our first impression of the London Bridge and Tower Bridge was Yahooooo and Wooow and there is nothing like it. Something like this you have to come and see it yourself to experience what we experience because there is not a word that can describe the feeling and the heart beat of witnessing the amazing architectures . We have some pictures to share with you but we forgot to bring the camera connector, so you have to be a bit patient with us. We will put it up soon.

Day 2: Learning Day!

We are heading to see the British Museum and surrounding area. We will keep you posted when we come back. Cheer!

Well, as we have promised to come back and fill you up with all the excitement of our day! The British Museum was our first stop, it was incredible and unique. The museum has a bit of every countries around the globe and we was able to find our beloved country, Cambodia. This has make us proud that once we was the huge empire, conquer the whole land, from the sea up to Chinese border. We got goose-bump just by reading our great history.

I know...I know... a lot of you keep asking me where are the pictures as I keep saying be patient, I will put it up for you soon as I find the connector of my camera (that is the promise).

The tour of the British Museum has taken the entire day and all our energy, thus, we have decided to head back to our hotel and rest for the following day.

Day 3: Kid's Day!

Today is a kid's day! We are heading to the Alton Towers, which is an amusement park. They have rides, water slide and many fun stuffs. In order to get there, we need to get on a train from London to Uttoxeter via Derby. This trip take about 2 hours. While we riding on the train we can see the country side of England. Most of the fields are either green or gold. On the vast green grasses we see a lot of sheep, cows and horses. Whereas, the vast gold field, I think they grow wheat grain.

We have arrived at Uttoxeter around noon. Then we get on a local bus and continue to our final destination. Finally, we get to the Alton Towers intact and ready to rumble.

The Alton Towers covers about 200 Hectares of land and comprise of Riding Theme, Water Theme, Golf Theme and Hotel Resort. We spent most of our time at the Riding Theme, it was crazy, wild and scary. At the end of the day, we got sick and feel unwell from those spinning and up side down rides. Then we decided to take it easy by spend the rest of our time in the amusement park sitting on the green grass in from the a big lake. By seven in the evening, we headed back to the train station and get back to our hotel by mid night.

Day 4: Chelsea's Day

We were so exhausted from the day before of so much fun that we want to stay in bed late. We left our hotel almost ten. Our intention was to go visit Buckingham Palace and see the Changing of guard ceremony, but due to England crazy weather (its rain then its hot and sunny then its rains again. The weather is so unpredictable) uncooperative, the changing of guard ceremony was canceled. Thus, we decided to go visit Chelsea Stadium instead. We walked from the Buckingham Palace to Chelsea Stadium. It was a pretty long walk, it took us about one hour and Mrs. Tep was so intrigue by the view and old architectures...to be continued
