Hey Lovelies,

So, last weekend I decided to get off my butt and do a bit of exploring in london. I also wanted to test out my photography skills, as I recently bought myself a digital camera. But as you can probably tell from the quality of my pictures, there is still a lot of room for improvement!

I decided to head off to Westminster, which is a definite must visit when in london. It's the home of the very popular Big Ben and London Eye.

Despite living in london for such a long time, I've never actually been out to simply enjoy the beautiful scenery. Well, that's probably because I'm the girl that sits at home, eats, and complains about being bored all day!

It took me several attempts to get a decent picture of The Big Ben. I was actually curious about the origins of the name Big Ben. So I asked my little friend google, only to find out the source is unknown. The Big Ben is literally just the nickname given to the clock on the Palace of Westminster (correct me if I'm wrong).

On a side note, I did a presentation in the house of parliament when I was much younger, for one of the charities I worked with. It was only a small audience, but it included members of the parliaments! Unfortunately in those days there were no such thing as a selfie (I probably had a Nokia phone ).

The london Eye! Can we all just take a moment to appreciate the beauty in this picture, not to blow my own horn, but it's actually a pretty decent picture! I've never been on the london eye; I'm not a big fan of heights, but I can enjoy its beauty from a distance... with both my feet on the ground.

Ping Pong Restaurant.

I literally cannot walk 5 minutes without thinking about I'm going to eat next. I came across this really cute Chinese Dim Sum Restaurant. If you are like me, you may be wondering what the heck dim sum means, It literally means - a Chinese dish of small steamed or fried savoury dumplings containing various fillings. Thank you Google, again.
