London and Paris

In London now. Very thankful to be in an English-speaking country, AT LAST. Last night, despite [livejournal.com profile] alexwish2005's premonitions, I must say that [livejournal.com profile] asukajude cooked a wonderful dinner. :D Mucho gracias~!

Went to Westminster Abbey yesterday. Quite expensive at 15 GBP, but somehow it felt much more splendid than, say, the Pantheon in Paris.

Instead of going out to see nighttime London, [livejournal.com profile] asukajude and I stayed home and watched the first two episodes of White Collar Season 2, as well as the very first episode of the new BBC Sherlock Holmes series. HOLY **** the latter is awesome. (Of course, I heard the 2nd episode is quite horrible...) Still, a pity that there are only 3 episodes this season. I hope they get a full season next year.

Anyway, here is a pic of the Concord in Paris.

FYI, third ep of WC is made of win. :)

Moffat said the second season's gonna have three eps as well. (also since it's written by Moffat, the whole serie's got Doctor Who vibe all over)
And OMG Holmes!!! I LOVE HOLMES!!! He's so ALIEN!!!!

The 2nd ep is still okay...

Well, each episode is double length, so it's like 6 episodes!

I have been enjoying all your lovely travel pics even though I haven't always been commenting. Hurray for English-speaking places, heh! One day I hope to do some traveling myself!
