Happy Lunar New Year!
We finally came from our trip. I was back on Jan 27, but way too tired and still fighting the jet lag! Our trip consist of London, Paris, Venice, and final stop Rome. Lets start with London!
Probably my favorite city out of this whole trip :)
Flew with Delta San Francisco to Atlanta, then Atlanta to Heathrow London. Second leg was about 8.5 hours, we were served lunch and then light refreshment breakfast, the breakfast sandwich was a little too bland :P

We arrived London around 12noon (Jan 15, 2014), we took the Heathrow Express to Paddington Station, this is the closest station to our hotel.

We arrived to the hotel around 2pm and couldn't help but fell asleep :P ... by the time we got back up, it was already dawn. We manage to make it to our first stop on our agenda, Trafalgar Square. It was a little rainy, but doesn't turn down our spirit!

Trafalgar Square - very pretty at night too![/caption]
Roaming around Piccadilly Circus - so many people there, definitely a different atmosphere.

Finally we ended up at London Chinatown and had our dinner in a random restaurant.
