Eureka Harrods. :D

Last month, we tagged along hubby to IC in South Kensington. We took Tube to save the time because it would have taken us two hours if we rode by car. (Londoners could not stand the traffic jam in the heart of London. :P)

After one hour journey, we finally reached the South Kensington Station. SK Station has few exits so this time we stopped at another exit which was farther than our previous visit. From the station, we had to walk about 1/2 miles before reached IC. But, when hubby went to see his SV, I chose to wait  inside the British Science Museum. It was under renovation, but luckily it was still open to the public and free admission!  Since that’s my first time handling Zafri and Iris alone apart from home so I could not enjoy the visit. Most of the time, I chased Iris while pushed his baby brother in the stroller around the museum. Therefore I did not dare to take out my camera and ended up with no photos at all. Huhu.

After hubby came up, I feel so relieved. Then, when he said let's go to Harrods, I was over the moon! Hehehe. Actually, it’s just more to window-shopping. We knew we could not afford (yet) to shop in there but for me, we should at least visit it once. It seems unbelievable if we do not go to Harrods especially when we live in London. Heheh. Actually, I was so curious.  Come on, it’s one of the famous shopping paradise in the world. hehehe. And to be honest, we never regret visiting Harrods that day. The staffs were warm and friendly and their service was excellent! They welcomed and greeted us nicely. The Sale assistants approached everyone equally. And I still remember being approached by one of the Sales Assistant in Perfume department. He’s so kind approaching me and then sprayed with Fendi new edition perfume. I guessed I was lucky to get the free and the sweetest fragrance I’ve ever smelled even I did not buy it. I even did not dare to ask the price!! Hehehehe.

Nway, Harrods building is so magnificent and I am not sure how many levels it has. We lost in it. I checked in Google,  there are 5000 staffs work in Harrods.  Can you imagine it. Huhuhu. Since it was almost noon, we were running out of the time and rushing. Pukul 3.15 nak amik Zahin kt school. So, at least pukul 1.45pm dah kene btolak balik ke Stratford. So we just touch n go their departments butlucky enough to find the Lady Diana and Dodi al fayed’s memorial. Also we managed to devour the super delicious gelato ice cream at the Ice Cream Parlour. It was a treat for our darling Iris who was well behaved that day. ;) Then, she also got a chance to pose with the two gigantic Paddington Bears!! They were so super duper cute! Hehe. Then, we bought a fridge magnet of London Black Cab which has written Harrods on it and  Chocolate Harrods as souvenirs before we go back home. Jadilah kannn. hehehe..Insya Allah Next time ada rezeki kita dtg lg dgn along Zahin plak. Ada rezeki lebih lg, kita shop2 lebih jgk. Amin!. Hehhehheh.

Now, enjoy the pics! :)
