London, 2003 - Part II

[haebin]

Like I promised it yesterday … here is the second part of my London pictures =D



It is so beautiful, isn’t it?
I guess, I stood 30 minutes in front of this building and dreamed about the people 200 years ago ^^
Yeah, I know … my fantasy is really distinct XD


I had the luck to see the Horseguard Parade!!! *_*
Men in uniforms and horses makes asti happy \^^/
XD


Awwww, the red double-decker bus *_*


Sooo impressing *_*


I guess that is a part of Westminster Abbey, but I am not sure about it :o






And Westminster Abbey again (yes, I am really in love with this cathedral ^^) … unfortunately the cathedral was too huge for my poor little camera :P

So … and now … be prepared, because you’ll see something really disgusting …

…

My “HOTELROOM” >_>
And yes, it was really (!) a hotel -.-
I paid 35 Euros for one night with Breakfast. But when I came in the “hotel” and saw all the dirt there I decided not to eat there … and to starve the next three days -_-


The door of my room … hey, it was quite funny, because the door was broken and everytime everyone could enter my room. Sleep wasn’t necessary during my London-Trip … and thanks god, no one came into my room at night


I felt like in a prison cell *shivers*


My very comfortable bed … :rolleyes:
With blood spots on the mattress … ;_;


A really nice atmosphere D=
And the TV didn’t work, but that was okay for me.


My little bath … we had a bathroom for twenty rooms on the end of the floor … but the door was completely broken (you couldn’t close the door) and some idiots shat in the bathtub (god, right now I could vomit my lunch … after so much years the memory is still disgusting)

This “hotel” was the most horrible experience I’ve ever made in holidays ;_;

The next time, when I should visit London again … I’ll save a lot of money for the right Hotel. Even when I have to pay 100 Euro the night.



So, that was all from me ^^

Have a nice Saturday :)

Anke~

Ich auch *_*
Leider hat London die ja abgeschafft :(
Was ich echt verdammt schade finde. Immer werden die schönsten Sachen als zu alt und nutzlos angesehen =/

*rofl*
Ich glaub, selbst 'ne Gefängniszelle hier in Deutschland wäre noch komfortabler als dieses Hotel ^^

Mach ich doch gerne :D
Demnächst sind dann die Fotos aus Griechenland dran :333
*abflausch* ♥~

Ja -_-
Das Parlament (oder wer auch immer) meinte, die Busse seien zu altmodisch -_-

Oh ja, das war es. Was schlimmeres hab ich Gott sei Dank noch nie erlebt.

Yuk! Das """"Hotel"""".....disgusting...ich glaub, ich wär heulend raus gerannt und wär nach Hause geflogen, oder hätte was Anderes gesucht...

[haebin.livejournal.com]

Ey, als ich in dieses Hotel und an die Rezeption bin, war ich schon am schlucken. Als ich dann die Treppen hochbin, konnte ich kaum die Tränen zurückhalten. Und als ich dann ins Zimmer bin, hab ich zwei Stunden lang geheult. Aber mein Rückflug war ja gebucht und sonst war ich zu ängstlich, irgendetwas zu tun.
Und dann war ich eigentlich ständig weg, nur zum "schlafen" da.
Ich hatte mittags um 13.00 Uhr den Rücklug und hab morgens um halb sechs das Hotel verlassen, wo ich an den Flughafen geflohen bin ... und dort auf Stunden vorher eingecheckt und dann bis zum Aufruf geschlafen habe ^^

OMG XD It looks like you've been to prison... I love England and its people though. Miss it so much :/

[haebin.livejournal.com]

Yeah :|
Trust me, I felt this way ^^
Nya, at least my door was open und I wasn't caged XD

Yeah, England is great. Especially the people, they are soooooooo nice there *_*

[vanilla69.livejournal.com]

They are *__*
And I also like to food so much... Like Mince Pies and Sticky Toffee Pudding *_* There I gained 4 pounds or so XDDD

[haebin.livejournal.com]

Okay, I have to admit ... I starved because I was so disgusted by the hotel room, so I didn't was hungry :P

[vanilla69.livejournal.com]

Haha XD; Okay, that's a reason... but you should try sometime maybe, even though if I don't know if it's your taste :3

[haebin.livejournal.com]

Okay, promised XD

[michiyo-fir.livejournal.com]

Um yeah, London is really pricey. It's hard to get a nice room without spending at least 70 pounds.

Did you enjoy your trip? XD I love it there, but I guess I'm lucky since I have family there so I can go there in the summer and not have to stay in a hotel.

Did you go to Harrods? I love that store, although everything is too expensive to buy but it's so pretty ^^

[haebin.livejournal.com]

That is true. I was so happy to found this hotel in a german holiday brochure. And the pictures on it looked really nice ... until I saw it in real *shivers*

Yeah, I enjoyed it. Especially walking for hours in parks :3
I have to say, I didn't saw many of the typical Tourism stops ^^
I was happy to walk around ... like Notting Hill *_*

And nope, I didn't go to Harrods ... the store is too expensive for me ^^

[kawaikuma.livejournal.com]

your foto is awesome!
omg! THIS is HOTEL????? O_o it's really seems like prison

[haebin.livejournal.com]

Thank you :)

Yeah, that was really a hotel =/
So damn horrible *shivers*

I had a similar experience with my hotel in Earl's Court the first time I went to London. Clearly the people running it were just trying to make as much money as possible off their teenage guests, and their safety be damned. On the bright side, I did meet a couple of great Swedish rock fans there. Next time I went to London, I got a book beforehand on 'bed & breakfast' places, and stayed at quite nice and affordable ones; I had to take a train to the city, but it was still cheaper. We went on several "ghost walks," which was really fun.

[haebin.livejournal.com]

I didn't meet nice people there, because I was always outside of the hotel *laughs*
But it was okay for me, then the most of the "guests" were constantly drunked =/

For the next time I'll choose a better hotel ^^

Hm ... I have to admit, I don't know what "ghost walks" are *blush*

[tanfouk.livejournal.com]

Ghost walk: A guide, who is often an unemployed actor, takes a group of tourists for a walk in the city at night to visit places that are said to be haunted. I loved the "Ghosts of the Theatre" tour, because we went into famous theatres at night when they were empty and spooky and the guide told stories about the great actors of past centuries and how they are supposed to come back as ghosts. There was also a Jack the Ripper walking tour, but I didn't go on it. Anyway, it's a fun way to see the city when most of the crowds are gone, and walk off your supper.

[haebin.livejournal.com]

Ah, okay. Thanks for the Info. Sounds really interesting :)

[kazu-hisoka.livejournal.com]

The hotel room didn't look very comfortable. =/ Hopefully next time you'll be able to find a better place to stay at.

[haebin.livejournal.com]

It wasn't. It was a pure horror and I cried so much when I saw the room for the first time. I can understand why a huge german travel business has such a "hotel" in his proposal *shakes head*

[dianunex.livejournal.com]

ohhh I love first photo, sky is amazing beautiful, well i love all phtos,them look like a postcard...waouu you had a bad experience on hotel.even not look like hotel.i hear a lot about how expensive is london and cold too.london have beauty place where going^^

[haebin.livejournal.com]

Thank you :)

Oh yes, it was horrible. That was just ... I can't find words to describe how I felt when I walked in the "hotel". I am still shocked, even when it is so long ago that I was there ^^

That is true. London is unfortunately very expensive. But it is such a wonderful city at the same time ^^

[xyatomic.livejournal.com]

It's a really beautiful place! Glad you had fun, well excluding the hotel conditions though. :/

[haebin.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I really enjoyed the city :3
Except the experience with this damn hotel *laughs*

[haebin.livejournal.com]

The trip was 2003 ;)

[haebin.livejournal.com]

The fact was there were "nice pictures" at the web... But nya, it's a long time ago :shrug:

[energetic-red.livejournal.com]

Westminster Abby really is beautiful! I love the sunlight you captured in the pictures! *aww*

But your Hotel really was disgusting. 35 € for that hole...unbelievable! My Hotel in Paris wasn't the best one either but at least it was clean and without blood spots and a not broken door. óO I guess I would have left the Hotel...

[haebin.livejournal.com]

Thank you :)
I am a little bit proud that the most of the pictures are having such a nice atmosphere ^^

It was horrible. I cried so much when I entered the room. But at the end I slept there (wenn es möglich war) and nothing more. The most of the time I walked through the city ^^

[beliar-kofi.livejournal.com]

Oh, Anke you did wonderful pictures! they're much better from Vince work!
Cathedral looks amazing, I love this last, oh no, I love them all!^__^
But your hotel room looks sorrow...o_o

[haebin.livejournal.com]

o_O
No, not really. I think, Vincent is really talented with making photos. Mine are just photos from an usual tourist. But I like London, it was a nice Trip ... okay, except the "hotel". It was horrible and I was so disgusted =/
