"Let's go to the zoo, there's lots of things to do.." (KFC song)

In this cold and wet weather we headed to the zoo today. We didn't expect that it would rain as the forecast didn't predict so. We reached there quite early around 10.30 a.m. The first place we visited was monkey island. The monkeys are supposed to be outside in the open air but because of the weather they are kept in the cages. Let's me share some photos and interesting facts about the monkeys.

Wonderful Scenery on a Beautiful Day

We went to the Heights of Abraham at Matlock Bath last Saturday and it was really great. We started our journey with a spectacular cable car ride to the hill top. The scenery was magnificient from top. There were two caverns which once were rich with minerals. It was cold inside the caverns. Can you imagine how the miners used to collect the mineral with just one single candle lighted up in the dark cave? Apart from Abraham Height, there were some other places to be explored too such as lovers' walk, high tor, pic tor and some gardens. Due to time limit we could only explore lovers' walk and one of the gardens.

After we came down from the top, we went for dinner at a local pub restaurant. The food was... hmmm.... not too bad... ;) Allthough it was a long walk ,it was really worth it. Here are some photos to share..

Ohya, not forgetting the ice-cream, it was really yummyyy... :)

A day trip to London

We went to London last weekend to visit our friends. It was a wonderful trip altho just a short one. We managed to visit the Europe's largest mall, Westfield. It was kind of early when we reached there. Not many people were there or maybe because the mall is very big. We had our lunch at the nearby malaysian restaurant, Jom Makan. I had nasi lemak while my Dh had nasi goreng kampung. My verdict... The food was not so authentic. Still lacking of the flavours that suit our taste buds. After lunch, we went to my friend's new apartment and have a rest there.

After that, we headed to Patisserie Valerie for our tea time. We tried out four different types of cakes and also ordered a plate of egg benedict. The shop was packed with people and we had to wait for around 20 minutes to get a seat there. The cakes were really very nice, soft and fluffy. Next, we walked around china town and guess what we found out.... 3 in 1 Milo and big tin of Milo from Singapore. Let us don't talk about the price ;) I was looking for Korean black bean sauce to cook jjajangmyun. I lost count of the number of oriental shops that I went in to search for it. But at last I did find one but not the brand that I wanted to get. Anyway, I just bought one to try out.

What's for dinner?? We had chicken soba and okonomiyaki for dinner at Abeno, a Japanese restaurant somewhere near china town. The food was great but had to stand and wait for around 20 minutes for our turn. Anyway, it was worth waiting. And, it was time for us to go back home.

Comfortable?!

Do you know what is this? This is a bear sofa. The bears were arranged to make a comfortable sofa. Do you think it's comfortable? For me, I think it'll be quite scary if you sit on it at night. Just imaging few pairs of eyes looking at you in the middle of night. Anyway, this sofa is just for demo. We are not allowed to sit on it. So just look at it and imaging...
