Hey! Thanks for posting up all your pictures! XD

Wow, I didn't know you had motion sickness problems...glad that everything turned out alright in the end, even though it was pretty bad most of the way. >< *pat*

Haha, don't worry! I can't stand 13 Celsius either. Anything below 20 is cold for me too. XDD

ajskhdjklahsd THE LIBRARY!!!!!!! X3~~~~

I actually like the silver and red stars that they strung up across the top of the streets. XD

Might be Parliament. Looks like what a Parliament should look like anyways, or some major court or something. (ours looks pretty impressive too, just not so many awesome steps) XDD

XDDD STREET PERFORMER! They're awesome really, it's always fun to see those 'statue' ones.

Mmm, the first picture of Fitzroy Gardens is a really beautiful one. It's like a breather among all the city pictures and its buildings, y'know? Nothing wrong with the city (it's really cool!), but sometimes, it's good to take a break and see some green. X3

Oh wow the Fairy Tree! Too bad you didn't notice the artist...that's some awesome piece of work hey. =]

Moving on to check the other posts!

Ironically, I'd much prefer to die frozen than burned cause I think it hurts less. XD

I KNOW, THE LIBRARY. 8D I love all the old-style buildings there actually, since we don't get them here (except for the train station in KL). Haven't seen our own Parliament yet, how patriotic of me. XD

I agree with you about the city, the garden was really beautiful and calming(though I was somewhat irritable after going there cause we had to walk the whole way and I had sore feet XD). We had the brochure for the garden with the name of the artist of the Fairy Tree but I lost it... >.

Same here, actually. You just go to sleep, right? XDD

IT'S SO BEAUTIFUL. There are some, like you mentioned, but the problem here is that we don't maintain them well enough for them to look awesome. Could be because of the difference in weather too (humidity makes things decompose faster?), but all the same, it's a shame we don't have more well-kept historical buildings today than we've been given by the colonials...

Yeah, travelling can take a lot out of you! When I was in Osaka for my first day in Japan, I was already so tired by night time, but I forced myself to go to take a look at the underground mall below the hotel we were staying at because 'hey, when will you be able to come back here again hmm?', and all...it can be exhausting though! Glad you pushed through even though it hurt. *kiss* XDD

Although you may get frostbite before you shut down, but I doubt it matters since it's all numbed (unless we have the misfortune to be saved and given a warm shower OAO)

Yeah, the train station had all those mould and water stains on the wall cause it rains so much here (doesn't seem to be the case these days though =.=).

The pain is worth it, baybeh! XDDD
