Christchurch, Bournemouth, Stonehenge, Bath

holidays are bad for ur health when u have totally nothing to occupy urself...n all u do is watch tv the whole day...

when it's holiday and i have nothing better to do, i get emo easily..n the person who suffers the most when this happens..is the bf....

so....as a distraction, im going to continue to blog bout my nvr-ending holiday posts...

Aunty Sharon brought us to Bournemouth which is just right next to Christchurch...

there was a hot air balloon at the park!


we also went to the beach to look see..there were loads of ppl *no nude ppl tho*...great sunny day!

we walked ard Christchurch too...

there was a very very old church..

and in order for Aunty Sharon to take a pic of us like this,

she actually had to lie down on the floor LIKE THIS!!!

our lunch was always very simple...we would pack sandwiches, fruits and crisps...n even bright thermal bottle so tht we could make hot drinks!! "terra" leh!!

mum's trying to look cute but she just looked greedy to me!! muahaha...

i like this pic bcuz it made popo look much younger!! dun play play k...popo oso can lie down on the grass and act cute 1!!!

dad die die oso must take a pic like this..

the church is really beautiful...

we had an early bday celebration for peter..i made sushi n tiramisu...=)

he n mum havin a lil' toast

next day, we went to stonehenge...

er....it's a nice place la...but then not reli worth it to pay the entrance fees just to look at it lor..cuz u can see it from the outside...it's in an open field la!! we got a good shot of it from outside can adi...

then we went to Bath too!!



the Royal Crescent in Bath is very pretty!!!


and there were Babi's everywhere which i have no idea y....

a weird looking tree..really really fascinating!

mum n dad had to leave early to go to Manchester whilst popo n i stayed on longer...

Aunty Sharon's place

we went to Aunty Sharon's place after Italy...Aunty SHaron is my mum's 3rd sister...she has been staying in England for abt 30yrs...n yes she speaks like a posh English lady...hahAHha...

she cooks like one too!! we had roast dinner on the day we arrived...it was deLIcioUSsssSs.....

(from 3rd left) my cousin, Peter..Uncle Tim, couz Deborah and Aunt sharon...


we even had crackers ...

i had the best time at my Aunt's place cuz it was really comfortable..and every meal was accompanied by desserts at the end!! and wine too...

i tried her choc cake, strawberry triffle, blueberry cheese cake...

bcuz i was so used to havin desserts at the end of dinner, when i came back to msia, i was craving for sthn sweet after meal...but luckily the craving stopped after a while...pheww!! if not i'll b Super Tan Ah Pui..

peter n uncle tim played us songs after dinner too...peter is really good with music! he composes songs with lyrics on the spot...


we went for a walk along the beach after tht...it was freakkinnggg cold bcuz the wind was really strong...


we saw a lot of small beach hses too n my aunt said tht they cost a bomb eventho they jus used it to store their surfboards n stuff..


the 3 of them look alike..dun they?



ok..this is not the best pic of the 3 of us..hahHAha..but sadly we dint take many pics of us together...i wished i could spend more time with u guys!!!!

okla..stop complaning la...despite of all the extra money tht we had to come out during the tour and the kena conned parts, we had FUN!! we've got good hotels, nice coach, GREEATTT company!
