We headed to the supermarket to get some water and i couldnt resist the Pain au Chocolat when it's fresh out from the oven at the bakery!



Pretty cakes on display!






Taken from one of the popular Japanese joint.




Walking towards our first stop of the day~






Tada! The famous British Museum!





Rly huge museum and The Brits are real proud of their museums! 



The iconic structure.


Admission is free, but the audio guide is chargeable. I'm not into history, so I dint bother haha.



Lots of display, and segregated into different themes. Think this is Egyptian. 










Not a fan of history, so I just wondered around real quick.
Korean history.









More interested in the architecture haha.



I got bored of history after a while, so I left to walk around nearby while Susan immerse in the history lol.
Chanced upon some filming might outside the museum.










Had a Coconut Flat White from Pret A Manger! Liked it a lot but yet to find smth similar here unfortunately.



Walked all the way to Primark and took a photo of a top which I thought my mum might like, but she find the sleeve too long.


Headed back to The British Museum to meet Susan before heading towards Selfridges - chain of high-end department stores, similar to Shinsegae haha.

Some interesting lifestyle shop along the way. 





Dint try the Ben's Cookies there since we've them in Singapore as well. Though not like I've tried it here too lol.



Lush - I dint notice this shop before visiting London, but it started popping up around SG soon after. (found out that the first shop opened in SG in 2011!)








Huge department store!



Really atas shopping mall





Hello Panda from SG! Such a common snack (3 for $2.50 from Ang Mo downstairs) but is GBP1.30 ok haha.


Lots of ready to eat food.





Chocolates! <3



We left for the famous B&L for dinner!
The famous lobster rolls had only 2 flavours and one of it is SG Chilli Crab! Honored much?



Kiap Kiap!




I had the Grilled Lobster! With double salad instead of fries.
With the famous lemon & garlic butter sauce.
