London: Sunday

This is a follow-up post from the original and this post.

After waking up and getting ready, we made sure we knew which tubes we needed to get to places so that we didn't get so lost today! We started off at the London Dungeons... ready to be scared ;) on our way out of the station this man promoting another scary place approached us and he was HILLARIOUS. Michael wasn't that impressed but that's because his jokes were at Michael's expense, but I loved him! We made our way to the queue and started inside. I love being scared because it makes the situation a challenge to overcome. That said I can do it so well now that I'm not scared of many things :( I even like watching scary films by myself!

So the Dungeons, I had high expectations because my friend Harriet has been to the Edinburgh dungeons and said that she was scared the minute she walked in and she just wanted to get out. Well.. I did jump a couple of times (I am a very jumpy person) and that made me laugh (in a good way) but I wasn't all too scared!

We then decided to try and go back to Pitt Cue for lunch as I most days it is open for lunch.. just not Sunday's. HMPH. it was never meant to be :( instead we went to this cute Hawaiian place called Kua 'Aina and had amazing sandwiches! 
THIS lovely tea, which tasted exactly as it smelt. 
my BLT.. and random carrot stick
Michael's Teriyaki marinated chicken breast with cheese and chips


We then hopped on another tube to Madame Tussaud's (which has an interesting story behind it). I had never really been interested in visiting this place before as people photo's of the models were crappy and that they hadn't done a good job, but that really is just the quality of the photograph - these models are AMAZING. I swear I was stood opposite Taylor Launter at one point.. that good. Here are some faves:
Twilight boys <3

Audrey Hepburn for Theana

Robbie Williams for my moma, but he wasn't very good. 

JT. Personal viewing.

Rhianna - for my friend on placement


Silly mirrors in the superhero bit 
Michael took one look at this, burst out laughing and said 'look how fat you look'.... yeah he was in the doghouse for a couple of minutes ha. 

We watched a 4D superhero movie and got to wear these snazzy glasses ha.

After Madame Tussaud's we made our way to the Natural History Museum for some dinosaur fun!




do you know how BIG polar bears actually are?! They're huge!!

My mum will smile when she see's this- I used to want a feather fish for our fish tank.

My window sill looked like this but more clutter about 6-7 years ago.

Learnt something new!

Reminded me of some friends :) 

One last post about London and I'll be done!
