I know, I probably don't write as much as I should, but...you know me! :p
Anyway, so a couple of weeks ago Askin, Archy and I went to Brighton, a very nice small city (famous gay point as I've been told) on the coast side, South-East England, about two hours far from Central London. Actually, is not "about" two hours far, it took us EXACTLY two hours to get there and again another two hours to come back. We didn't believe it's gonna be so precise, but you know the English people!
The trip as we went to Archy's school was just £8,- each, really cheap! So we got there, we had lunch, and we went around the city for a couple of hours. Our first visit, as it was raining cats and dogs, was the Royal Pavillion. This was the summer house for king George, a really magnificent "little" palace by the sea. Outside you can imagine an Indian Taj Mahal, but inside is the most awesom Chinese-style palace. After we visited all the interiors, we had a nice cup of tea in the tea room, up stairs in the terrace, with a great view of the palace's gardens.
As soon as the rain stoped, we went for a walk around the city, visiting its nice narrow streets, finding traditional old shops where we bought some old-fashion fudge.
Finally we ended up in the beach taking some pictures (you can see them on facebook, there's no need to put the same stuff twice on two different places...). We took the bus and came back to Central London, yes in exactly two hours. As soon as we put a foot on London, the sun made his great appearence...that bastard!! So we went for a walk around Regent's Park. Great day for a great price.
