Snapshots from the United Kingdom

Hey people, its me again posting after a long gap marked with a semester i would rather forget and a trip to the UK. Wonderful place for tourism, and if you are a avid shopper, there are places where you can go mad.
I wanted to share some pictures of the places and some things that caught my eye.Do not worry, none of the pictures have me in the frame ( Now who is interested in that ?? bah !! )

First stop : Stonehenge. Some say that the earliest stones at this place date back to 4000 to 5000 BC. A 150 odd miles drive from where i stayed. Some 2 hour drive when you have roads like this ( Driving nirvana !! )



The Emirates Stadium in North London. The Stadium was majestic but would have been better if placed somewhere else. I did not find the locale rather uplifting to the senses.




A stunning view while driving through Scotland. The scenery is consistently breathtaking throughout the journey.


The only Indian city mentioned at the Greenwich Meridian line is Bombay. I always thought Delhi was more important because its the capital. Maybe the brits thought otherwise..


And look ! guess who stopped by to pose for a photo :) !!  Madam Tussauds is loads of fun. !!


Now, this is the funny part. The picture above is a pay booth at a public toilet in central London. 50 pence is the fee. Hmm.. lets see... 35 Rs to pee ??!! . Now wtf dude.. i can go by the road for free from where i come from !! LOL.

And finally a really cool tissue to end with :)
