Crossing the Sea and Stopover in London

My day started at 3am when we went on the ferry from Calais to Dover. Well, none of us was really sleeping anyway, so we used the time to get out of the bus and breath some fresh air. When we finally boarded the ship, some of us including me used their chance to get a place on the more comfortable and long seats. Finally, I was able to lay down instead of sleeping in seating position. Don't get me wrong, I am able to rest in this position, but my back hurts afterwards every time ;)

After 5 - 6 hours more in the bus, we finally arrived in London. At first, I searched a place to store my heavy luggage for the rest of the day. Because it was 10am and my bus to Dundee started at 11pm, I wasn't really eager to take it with me the whole day :D

After storing it at the luggage storage, I started my day in London. To be honest, I did not bring the camera with me I used in Japan. It's just too expensive to take it with me and I won't be able to make much photos anyway, if I concentrate on my studies. So sorry for the bad picture quality of my phone oO

So what did I do today? Breakfast at McDonalds, immediately afterwards lunch at KFC and then resting at the Hyde park. Okay, I took a short walk in the area near Victoria Station too. By pure coincidence, I was even at the Embassy of Ecuador. You know, the one with Assange ^^
Lots of people made music and sang in front of it. Honestly, I don't know why because I didn't understand it.

As I told you, most of my time, I just slept in the Hyde Park. After 18 hours of traveling, this was really something that I needed. And by changing the place from time to time, I saw many people too ;) By the way, the Hyde Park is really beautiful with its fountains, flowers and statues :)
