My Super Easter Trip Part 1~

My Easter trip was a really long one. I had been to the South of UK to visit my friend, Yae Sze in Conventry. Coventry is really a small city and nothing interesting there and the main reason i choose to spend my holiday there is because my friends, Gia Yunn came all the way from Malaysia to visit YaeSze in Conventry. It has been long since three of us last travelling together. I remember the last one should be the Malacca trip during high-school. That's almost 10 years ago. So, it is really precious that we manage to travel again in UK.

Nevertheless, Conventry has a good location whereby it is very near to many nice and interesting city. We had travel to Bicester Village, Stratford Upon Avon, Birmingham, Warwick Castle, Bath, Stonehenge and Liverpool.

Day 1: Bicester Village. It is a superb outlet shopping village and many famous outlet can be found here such as Gucci, Burberry, Polo, Dior, Vivien Westwood, Mulberry and so many more. And it is so amazed to see the way GiaYunn shop here. Hehe, hope i can afford to spend like that one day in the future!



Day 2: Stratford-Upon-Avon. This is a town where William Shakespear was born. This was a relaxing day and we just visited a few places which were related to William Shakespear!




Day 3: Bicester Village and Steambot + Karaoke night. We went back to Bicester Village again because we realised that we were regretted not to buy sth during the first visit. SO So crazy. We then head to a sichuan steambot shop. That's super nice! 4.5 star because it is spicy, my favourite! And we also spend the remaining one hour to have Karaoke in that restaurant. COol~ love it cause i have been craving for karaoke for so so so long~




Day 4: Warwick Castle. This is a ancient castle where the king last spent his life before he died in the war. A very small castle indeed but there are some interesting things to be seen in the castle. There are some people actually acting as the queen and servant inside the castle. And the queen actually insisted us to bow to her when we passed by her front. Interesting~









Day 5: Bath. This is the only sunny day throughout this whole trip! Love the weather, love the Roman Bath, love the Royal crescent and love the city!












Day 6: Lacock and Stonehenge plus the Sally Lunn lunch in Bath. Lacock is the oldest village in UK. It is the place where one of the scene of Harry Potter was shoot. One of the house was also the Harry Potter's parent's house in the movie. It was also the place where the drama Pride and Prejudice was shoot. Stonehenge has been the place i always wanted to visit since i came UK. That's the first architecture history i first learned back in Taylors College. Being there is like dream come true but i really hate it to be rainy and stormy when we went in to take picture. Haih~ Spent so much to go in and only one picture taken can be used. Sad. Sally Lunn Restaurant is one of the oldest building in Bath. It's really famous for it bun. I used to compare it with the roti bakar in Malaysia before i try it. But, seriously, it is really nice. Will definitely try it if i go back to Bath again!











Day 7: Liverpool. The hometown for The Beatles. It is also a port city promoting various kind of art because the trait of them can be seen everywhere in the city. Liverpool has the biggest CHinatown entrance arch in UK but a very boring chinatown. hehe...One of the most amazing thing is- I saw so many ladies walking around in the city with the hair rollers on their hair. What a weird thing!















Day 8: Rest day and Back to Glasgow. No energy to move around anymore. Resting at my primary school's friend - ChiuYee's place in Liverpool and saving energy for the Superb Scotland Roadtrip tomolo. Time to go back Glasgow. Goodbye my trip. Gonna miss this!
