London

Portobello Market & Southall


We went to Portobello Market on Saturday morning and then Southall. It was really cold but it was worth it.

Cake & Cards


It was Harpreet's Birthday, we threw her a small 'party' at midnight to celebrate.

London Eye


We went to the London Eye on Sunday morning.

'Some' Garden


Walking away from the Eye we came across some garden, took some photos while we waited for Harpreet who went back to the eye (long story lol).

Walk to Trafalgar Square


We went down a random road and ended up at Trafalgar Square.

Walk to Buckingham Palace


We went down another road and we on our way to Buckingham Palace.

Buckingham Palace & Changing of the Guards


We happened to get to the Palace just before midday and the changing of the guards was taking place, talk about timing..

Our hotel was opposite Hyde Park and Kinsington Gardens.. Nice views.

London



I spent the last few days (17-20) in London. Went to London for a short break and ended up having a really good time. We managed to get a lot done and also had some interesting experiences whilst there.

Photos and more to come soon.

The Lord does whatever He wishes

kabeer jo mai chithavo naa karai kiaa maerae chithavae hoe.
apanaa chithaviaa har karai jo maerae chith n hoe. 219.


Kabeer, whatever I wish for does not happen. What can I accomplish by merely thinking?
The Lord does whatever He wishes; it is not up to me at all. 219.
