London Revisited... 英伦之旅 (III)
London Revisited. 英伦之旅 (III). 15 Dec 2007 (Saturday): Paris - London. Crossing the English Channel. It's one of the rare mornings that we started the day late. the Eurostar that headed for London only left Paris at 11 . The journey lasted for about 2.5 hours. Well, it's already the 2nd time. but noticed the difference at the immigration point. Back in the early 2000s, we only 'cleared' our immigration at London Waterloo, however, this time, it's at Paris to process our entry to UK! For the first time in ...

涉足金陵 Nanjing, China
涉足金陵 Nanjing, China. 南京，可谓是一大古都。数千载，它，拥有光辉灿烂的光荣史；它，也曾经过坎坷的时代，经历过风吹雨打，人为摧残。踏入南京，就走入金陵。。。回到了历史的怀抱，沉淀在里头了。。。 18 Sep 2009: Departing Singapore. Left my home at 2.45 pm. The departure time of the flight (SQ818) is 1655h. It was rainy. but I didn't know how heavy it was until I stepped out of the house. What was I doing the whole morning?

Just remembered, it's the chemical warmer! BTW, the gate's opened already. It's 10.10 pm. Bye. :D. Shall blog again in Osaka :D. It was another disappointment! No, didn't ...
