Cornwall Day 3: Bristol & Bath

UK: Tuesday (170810); 1430 hours.

Read Day 1 and Day 2 posts.

Bristol.

We were given time till 12pm to explore Bristol a little before checking out from the hotel. Woke up at 7 plus and started our "exploration" (more of a shopping spree actually) in the city.

Us, with a statue of Neptune on the way to The Mall and Cabot Circus.

(Psst, both are shopping centres *wink wink*)

Clifton Suspension Bridge.

Behold!

Credits goes to this man.

The bridge has been there for over 100 years and still standing strong.

Natural slide.

Bath - the last destination of the trip.

The Pump Room.

Roman Baths.

Needed an entrance fee of £10 if I'm not mistaken so we did not enter.

Bath Abbey.

"Bath Abbey is an active Christian Church situated at the heart of the city. Founded in 1499, it stands on the site of an earlier Norman Cathedral and the original Abbey Church built in the 8th century."



The lectern from which the Bible is read.


The Choir Stand.

The ceiling.

Beautifully designed.

The High Altar and the great East window with 56 scenes from the life of our Lord.

(Seriously, I'm referring to the pamphlet I got. You think I can remember all these? Lol.)

Moving on..

Nice eh!

Pulteney Bridge and River Avon.

And now we were on the other side.

They have such nice pillows; just lying on their backs.

The Circus.

Townhouses built in a circle.

Like this!

Designed by John Wood the Elder (dad) and completed by John Wood the Younger (son).

Royal Crescent.

Nah, liddis.

Designed and built by John Wood the Younger.

Geez, both dad and son must have great love for architecture.


Royal Victoria Park.

We came across many lion statues around the city. Guess they are like Superlambananas in Liverpool; called Lions of Bath.

These are the few pretty ones.

It was time to called it a day, and back to Sheffield we went.

With our bus driver for the trip.

Thank you, Mr Louis!

Had a great and enjoyable trip though it was super tiring. Thank you, Momma and Poppa for giving me the chance to see the other side of the world.

PS: It's Poppa's birthday today! Happy Birthday! :D

PPS: Hasil-hasil shopping and souvenirs post next!

Cornwall Day 2: Lands End, Minack Theatre, St. Michael's Mount & Tintagel

UK: Friday (130810); 1730 hours.

Continuation from this and this.

Day 2 was a crazy day, as you can see from the post's title. (And I'm going crazy because I'm looking at so many pictures and can't decide which to post.)

Lands End.

Reached!

Imma giant hohoho.


Bollywood feel eh? XD

Mamma mia!

It's like I superimposed myself into the picture. Lol.


Note to self: Do not take picture while holding purple bag.


The First and Last House.

Hehe.




Us, with The Gentle Wave.

(The stone if you didn't know. Who calls a stone The Gentle Wave anyway? -_-)

HAHAHAHA.

Eee.. snail without shell.

Cute lil' bunny.

Minack Theatre.

Paid an entrance fee of £2.20.

It's like an open-air theatre facing the sea.

This is the model of Minack Theatre.

Superwoman Rowena Cade built this herself.

Beautiful flowers everywhere.

St. Michael's Mount.

A castle built on a mount.

To get to the castle, we could either walk across when the tide was low or take a boat ride which would cost £1.50 one way.

The tide was rising when we were there, so we didn't opt to get across.

This swan sesat.


Sausage roll for lunch @ £1.25.

Tintagel Castle.

Also see here for an awesome view.

Paying a £3.80 entrance fee wasn't an issue here. We were all doubting whether to enter the castle as we would need to climb a very steep hill/cliff to get to the peak. This was our fourth destination and you can imagine how exhausted we were already.

But our tour guide said the climb will be worth it, so we all trusted him.

This wasn't even halfway yet. We were only in front of the entrance. T_T

Okay this was halfway and we were taking a break.

Three quarter through.

Some bits and pieces of the castle.

And finalleh!

Small sacrifices need to be made to see beautiful things, yes?

This is our enemy.

This is me, very close to the edge.

(Momma, please don't faint. I'm still safe and sound. Hehe.)


I really couldn't describe the feeling of sitting there, overlooking such beautiful view.

Yay we made it to the top!

This is what happens when you ask someone who has no sense of photography to snap a picture of us.

Only us, nothing else. -_-

Ahhh.. this is better.

Even better!

Taken by our tour guide.

I love it!

The other side of the castle.

We had to climb down towards the entrance and climb up another flight of steep stairs to reach here because if you can imagine this: the entrance is in the middle and the castles are on both left and right of it. HORROR!

Nevertheless, I was once in Tintagel Castle. :)

We headed to Bristol for the night.

Had dinner in this place called Hollywood, which I reckon the boss was a Malaysian.

Wanna cry. I can eat in Kim Gary until I vomit with RM44. T_T

My starter - Hot and Spicy Soup.

Main course - Ginger and Spring Onion Chicken Rice.

Dessert - Sago with Coconut Milk and Gula Melaka.

Out of all three, the last one was the best. -_-

*RM44 flies away*

Hahaha dunno what building. I think some City Hall or something.

That was all for day 2. Wait for my last post on Cornwall! :)
