LONDON-LOVE DAY 9: REUNITED

Tine & Tim went to the Travel Expo, while Jr & I stayed home to unpack/re-pack to prep for our 12 Day Euro Trip with TOPDECK.... Packing does take a while, luckily a checklist was of assistance. After all that was done, we had our microwave lunch (thanks to M&S) and got ready to meet up with Charles, Michelle, Pao & Sally in St James Street (off Oxford Street).

On the way, via tube - Saturday was a busy day especially with some lines not working on the weekend. The tunnels were packed with people, so getting around, on & of the tube was crazy!! Seeing the tube in view, we ran to get on - we I ran to get on thinking Jr was right behind me... but another dude was there... I looked back as I got on and saw Jr a few metres back... the doors were shutting and I grabbed his arm...."Get in".... arghhh... while his arm stopped the doors, he brushed his arm (pretty much gropping) on a chicks 'breasteses'... LOL. The tube was a packed liked sardines.. it was funny with the rush of things...



Making our way to St James Street, we some more of London's hidden beauties of restaurant filled courtyards and boutique stores...





We finally met the crew in a corner pub. It was good seeing the glowing Michelle again.... We told stories of the past and funny experiences of life in London.... A love-hate relationship...



OMG!!!... And Dean, if you're reading this... We found your long lost twin!!!... Check out the chick in the middle!... DEAN'S TWIN SISTER!! Jr's other older sister!!... see how excited he was (even though he was denying the resemblance). Michelle was agreeing with me once I spotted the TWIN!!!... LOL.. One of the days highlight!...



Group shot!!!!... Eveyone say "MENESES"!!!...




Walking through Marylebone (Charles & Michelle's Hood). It was a beautiful area!




Jr fighting the cold as he forgot to bring the essential coat.



After saying goodbye to C & M - pao, Sally, Jr & I left to go have dinner in Shoreditch. We tubed it from Baker Street Station and caught a Taxi.




Viet food baby!!!!.... Thanks to Sally & Pao's recommendation... Fresh Summer Rolls / Viet Pancakes / Pho!!!.... Yumm-ay!!



Jr & I departed to meet up with Tine & Tim - we had Mel Yudi's Bday Drinks in Notting Hill to attend.


We took the longest way to get there and got lost along the way.... but we finally made it to "Trailer Happiness".... an underground club (which was small inside - but the music was cool).



Happy Birthday Yudi!!!
