London 2016 : British Museum

One of my checklist to visit is The British Museum. On the 2nd last day of my trip here...manage to drop by for half day. 

Thank god for google map ...manage to spot this place.Took the tube toTottenham Court Road  and 500m walk to the museum with the help of google map .

The museum enttree is free ... however if your feeling generous or just having too much money - you can give them a donation ... me of course ... short of both ...gladly enter for free. 

Why visit the british museum - cause they have extensive exhibits around the world ... collected especially during the British Invaders time.

So glad to see this entrance...

 Royal Gold Cup or Saint Agnes Cup, made in Paris, France, 1370–80 AD

The british museum is huge ... 

 some corpse

 huge walls taken from somewhere

 Main visit to the museum is to visit this place .... the Egyptian exhibits

 can see the mummies

real live mummies ... 

very very well preserve mummies ... however morally i think is so wrong lo . People die laio ..should let them die in peace ma ... 

These people ar ... dig them up than put them in the glass exhibit for everyone to see. 

However their collection is very impressive . First time see 

 Column from the Temple of Artemis in Ephesus, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, Turkey, early 4th century BC (taken from wiki) 
Damm keng - take people puunya temple column !!! 

 Colossal statue of Amenhotep III, c. 1370 BC

 Dinning area ... where i had my lunch

 Rosetta Stone  Rosetta_Stone Wiki

 Panel with striding lion made from glazed bricks, Neo-Babylonian, Nebuchadnezzar II, Southern Iraq, 604-562 BC

 Proud to be Malaysia :>

 some tomb - their exhibit no cover ...so you can touch them , lean on them or even sit on them ... even tot there's a sign say no touching.

The Easter head status ... asked by my sis to go have a look !!!

Easter Island statue Hoa Hakananai'aWellcome Trust Gallery, 1000 AD

So worth spending half a day there ... wish to have more time and space . 

Maybe should read more old historical ifnromation before visiting this museum . Some of the history sound very foreign to me ..

British Museum opening hour 10am-5.30pm(everyday) , friday until 8.30pm

I wish i has more time to loan the audio guide - only $6 per person.

Bristol/London 2016 : Day 1 Landed in Hearthrow Airport

This year business trip is the best ever ..of course other than US la. 

Business trip travel from 26 Sept - 4 Oct 2016 to Bristol for equipment buyoff. 

Took singapore air and transit changi airport.

Departed from Penang around 9 pm something 

Dinner on board ...landed in Heathrow airport around 7am in the morning .We took the airport bus to Bristol which around 2 hours by road from Hearthrow airport. 

Check in hotel - Double tree by Hilton nearly lunch time. Was lucky that we got to check in early .Per night here cost us around $138 including breakfast .

room very basic 

 with no bathtub. Pretty small also for a room in Bristol.

 After checkin- we walk around for lunch ...Bristol is a very very small city that we can explore within 1 day.

 very nice pebble street road . Remind me of the city of Regensburg .

 Ate japanese food - around $7 for a bento set.

 Canal along the city of Bristol .

 Saw Genting casino opposite our hotel. Is legal for casino to operate here .

After lunch went for a short shopping trip to Primark. Got really good deal. Everything here cost here around $30 . So cheap rite ? 

Brought my shoe for only $2 (RM10.80) but of course quality like Vincci .Got a bit crazy with buying Hannah clothing .Women clothing is also cheap but the range are more for Winter clothing .. so lazy to buy. 

Dinner@ Aqua Italia alone. My team guy ditch me . 1st guy want to eat halal KFC and another one having bad diarrhea . 

Dinner on pizza alone ...and of course cannot finish la .. Around 20 inch pizza.

 Of course must stop by the local grocery for local junk foods . Not as cheap as in Regensburg but cheaper than in Penang. Notice the wine ..so call suppose to help on the jetlag but no effect so end up buying sleeping pills.
