"The world is but a canvas to the imagination.” – Henry David Thoreau

Shrouded in mystery, steeped in history and nestled within a temperate atmosphere, London is without a doubt beautiful and exciting. With so much to discover and explore, a month alone in London will not be sufficient for one who is deeply engrossed in arts, culture and history.

Exploring London with only a map, mobile  and camera in my hands was once again, tiring and confusing. Firstly, with the countless of food reviews available online and in the Lonely Planet guidebook, being spoiled for choice at times isn't a luxury after all. It was effing difficult to make a decision on where to go and what to eat, what to see and what to do. After all, gawd knows when I'll be back to this soon-to-be Olympic city.

London is blessed and really lucky to be a city that can proudly boast on its rich architecture and renowned buildings, scattered strategically all over. Too little can be seen in just three days of sight-seeing when one has to make time for shopping as well. Home to Topshop, Miss Selfridge, Dorothy Perkins and Primark, I could spend hours after hours in there. I miss the famous Harrods and Niketown, and you can imagine the amount of time left to sight-see and be amazed by the British Museum and various art galleries!

Nonetheless, London is full of life. The hustle and bustle of this city is one common description used by many to speak highly about this city. I am missing London oh so very much!

Really lucky to catch a rainbow over Tower Bridge!

Luv this shot! :)
