London #8

Menghabiskan sisa-sisa hari di London, Kami decide untuk ke London Sealife Aquarium.  Hari ini adalah hari Baby SJ

Seperti biasa, kenderaan utama adalah Underground.  Dari Barking station kami berhenti di Wensminster station.  Menapak kira-kira 200m, sampailah kami di Aquarium.  Ticket agak mahal (Pound 23/adult) tetapi dengan bantuan 2in1 voucher kami berjaya dapat 2 tiket dengan 1 harga.

 Saya secara personalnya merasakan kurang berbaloi membayar RM100 per entry kerana saiznya lebih kecik dari yang saya bayangkan.  Mungkin juga sebabnya Aquaria Malaysia lebih menarik hati saya.

Keluar dari Aquarium kami bergelut mencari makanan halal di kawasan sekitar tapi apa malang hari ni, kami tak jumpa.  Subway yang terdekat tidak pulak mempamirkan logo halal (tak semua subway halal, hanya yang ada logo halal menjual meat yang halal).  Akhirnya kami end up dengan memakan sandwich telur dari convenience store)

Selesai lunch, kami mengambil underground menuju ke Museum of London.  Nice place to lepak with family with free entrance fee.

 Antara yang menarik terdapat di London Musuem

 And the f* word is so famous here

I like this..

St. Paul church tak jauh dari museum of London

 St. Paul Underground.  Sayup di dalam tanah.  Orang yang gayat mesti seriau memikir yang dia makin dekat dengan mantel bumi

 Kami singgah di Oxford street untuk meninjau tempat sesuai untuk shopping di hari terakhir kami di London.  Itu pun jenuh saya paksa Encik D untuk sparekan masa untuk kami shopping.  Bagi yang tak kenal saya, kami bukan kaki shopping sangat.. mungkin bajet tak cukup, mungkin juga kami ni simple.. wallahualam.  Yang pastinya saya jarang shopping jika saya keluar negara.  Kalau adapun untuk souvenier and untuk baby SJ.

Tok batin menunggu train untuk balik ke Barking

Berakhir hari ke 8 kami.  Rata juga kami berjalan hari ini.  Penat sampai terpaksa mengheret kaki melangkah balik dari Barking station ke  rumah sewa.

A Child Of Mine

Original Author: Edgar Albert Guest

(edited to suit the condition)

I will lend you, for a little time,
A child of mine, He said.
For you to love the while she lives,
And mourn for when she's dead.
It may be six or seven years,
Or twenty-two or three.
But will you, till I call her back,
Take care of her for Me?
She'll bring her charms to gladden you,
And should her stay be brief.
You'll have her lovely memories,
As solace for your grief.
I cannot promise she will stay,
Since all from earth return.
But there are lessons taught down there,
I want this child to learn.
I've looked the wide world over,
In search for teachers true.
And from the throngs that crowd life's lanes,
I have selected you.

But the angels called her,
Much sooner than we've planned.
We braved the bitter grief that came,
And tried to understand.

My dear AJ,
I want you to know my little secret today
I have been raised in a favoritism environment
I never been a favorite daughter
I didn't complained but it make me thinking
I made a promise that I will treat all my children the same
I will love all the same
but deep inside, you were one of my favorite
I try not to show it
I try not to be prejudiced
I want to be fair
I want to erase the feeling of being abandoned

I also want you to know
Giving you and all the other furry for adoption was one of the hardest decision in my life
Maybe I shouldn't do it all
Maybe I should stay the way I use to 5 years ago
Maybe I shouldn't commit myself to something that called marriage
It even harder when I couldn't walk the talk
To visit you & the siblings often
But from now on I promise that I will not leave you anymore
I will visit your grave everyday


Goodbye AJ..
Rest in Peace
