Already the evening we arrived to London we headed to the London Eye. After stopping in a few pubs of course! It is a great way to get an idea and an overview of London eventhough I think it was a bit expensive. The London Eye I mean. The pubs are also a good way to get into the way of life in London... :)
One of the dudes we travelled with is kind of a Tiki fan. More than us others I mean. He had been doing some exploration about Tiki Bars of London before the trip and we got to visit a few of them. They were all awesome in their own ways but Kanaloa was the one that made the biggest impression on me. The personnel and the owner were kind and funny people. The food was a little different from anything I had tasted before and it tasted terrific! Not to mention the drinks! :) I truly recommend to anybody interested in Tiki or good food and drinks.
We found such lovely little vintage shops as we walked a lot around London I could have spent a fortune in those. But more of them in my next post.
We also visited British museum to check out this guy and some other things from our history.
It was my second time to visit there but I would love to visit it once more with a little more time! We only had like one hour to wander aroud there because they closed it earlier because of the underground strike. That was a thing that caused also us a little extra stress because we had to get to the Heathrow and the trains were naturally jammed. Luckily the hotel personnel succeeded to arrange us taxis. It was even cheaper for us than taking the train which is unbelievable to us because of the taxi prices here in Finland. But of course the underground would have been the cheapest.We spent the weekend in Spalding attending the Kustom Kulture Blastoff. It was a nice happening and the town was beautiful. We kind of got a hangout there as we eated every night on this lovely place called Frankie & Benny's. We got marvellous service there and the food was fine. We even got a little birthday surprise to one of the guys even though he didn't have his birthday then. :)
The trip was awesome. I laughed more than ever in a week! I wish we will make it again next year and that I have the oppoturnity to attend it then also. Thanks mates!

Frankie's & Benny's is one of my favourite restaurants and London definitely my fav city in the world. Looks like you had great time.
London is indeed a nice and interesting city. But maybe too hectic for my taste. And we surely had great time! :D
