Tour and See the World: Pictures from Leicester, part 2
I actually finished my exams quite a few days ago and thought to myself, hey, now I will have lots of time to write my travel blog and write about the things I wanted to do - how to travel, tips on travelling and all sorts of stuff like that on travelling! But then I did lots more of other things and had less time to work on Tour and See the World, ...... ....... but NOW I am back! :)
That is, I'm back till I go off to Genting in Malaysia for holiday. It turns out that I won't be going to either the USA or Australia - the recession has got worse, and honestly the financial tsunami has definitely hit the tourism industry, as well as my pocket. So I will be going to Malaysia instead, on a tour package/ travel package... it's cheaper to visit Malaysia you see!
Anyways, enough grumbling and enough complaining... :D
tour and see Leicester! :)
More pictures from beautiful Leicester in the UK, including Leicester university. Enjoy the pictures here, thank you very much for visiting!
This Leicester comedy festival was a really interesting one, as well as a crowd puller for the tourism/ tourist industry!
Leicester - typical England-y look here?
Still visiting Leicester university I believe....
My intrepid traveller friends!
Leicester - and just for laughs! :)
They're cute. And arranged neatly in a circle! That's it.
More pictures on England to come later! Thanks and cheers. Gotta run!

And also come pictures from Coventry as well... that I snuck in at the end of the post here.
I have almost finished my examinations and have two more papers left, so I have some time to blog, and so - voila! - here I am.
Coventry is near Leicester, so that explains why there're a couple of pictures from Coventry as well.
In any case, let the pictures do the talking - my hands hurt from writing so much and typing isn't making it much better - here goes: Pictures from Leicester in England, as well as some Coventry pictures that got into the mix as well! Enjoy :)
Picture from Leicester University... 
I felt that this picture was very nice and decided to put it in - Leicester in England is very beautiful; looks nice doesn't it?
A high up view of the area ...
Coventry university... as far as the eye can see...
Interesting sign here! So I decided to put that one in as well.
Alright, back to studying I go, for my last few papers! Gotta go, thanks for reading and cheers!
Tour and see the world! - Leicester
Some rambling comments - since it's my travel site, after all.... :)
More pictures and interesting articles to come in future posts here on my travel site, and in future I shall be posting and writing more about travelling in general and Singapore in particular. How can it be, that I have more pictures of England here on my travel site than Singapore ones? Haha. Same question that someone commented on Eunice's Travelerfolio. But I am not that famous yet, so I can afford to put up more pictures of places all around the world first before some people can put up snide comments!
Besides, it's much easier to write about Singapore and write about general things and tips than it is to source for pictures and go through many files.
Then again, once my exams are over I will be travelling either to the USA or Australia and then I will indeed have more pictures and more sources to write about, and less time and energy to write about Singapore! Hahaha :)

Tour and see the world! - we're at Stratford-upon-Avon for this post in this series!
Hi, it's me again :) Technically I should be studying for my four exams which are coming up really soon, but I've decided to put out yet another interesting post with beautiful pictures for my loyal readers! Thanks to all my loyal readers and also thanks to all the new visitors who come to visit my travel website. Thank you people very much, and I do hope you like my travel blog! :)
Anyways I'm currently doing a series about Stratford-upon-Avon, which everybody should know, even if they have not visited or gone to that place yet... yup Stratford-upon-Avon is the place where Shakespeare was born. Here are more beautiful and interesting pictures from Stratford-upon-Avon in England, UK.
I must say that the place looks quite quaint! Anyways, I wanted to say also that there is a museum of witchcraft and wizardry somewhere in Stratford-upon-Avon in England, but sadly there aren't any good pictures of that for me to show you - so here's Rother Market instead! :)
Gnarled and mangly eh....? 
It says The White Swan...
And to cap it off, that's Gladys at the Shakespeare Centre in Stratford-upon-Avon! More on the other places that my intrepid traveller friends visited, coming right up!
After my exams and when I have time to write all about England, travelling, visiting beautiful places like Stratford-upon-Avon and the like.... oh well! So So So Sorry. And thank you very much. Cheers, and thank you for reading.
PS I can't wait till my examinations are over, because then I will be go backpacking in the USA and in Australia, and of course I will take many great pictures to share with all my readers. Two more weeks to go! It's very stressful... but that's life as a student I guess! Gotta go...

I managed to find some time from my busy work schedule - studying, exams, studying again - to blog, so here I am once again! First and foremost apologies to my loyal readers and also thanks to Zara, who has awarded me another blog award for my site! Thank you and when I have time I shall definitely receive the award so that I can put it up on my site, so thanks Zara! Also, a hearty thanks to all my readers and visitors to my travel site.
Tour and see the world! :)
These here are some general pictures from Stratford-upon-Avon, which is very famous for being the birthplace of William Shakespeare, one of the greatest playwrights who ever lived.
Alright, here's my attempt on pictures from Stratford-upon-Avon, the famous place where Shakespeare was born and a tourist attraction to millions from around the world!
I found this picture nice, so I put it in - but I am sorry that I don't know much about it except that it's somehow related to Shakespeare!
Stratford-upon-Avon looks something like this, but more to come on Stratford-upon-Avon...
Tada - now that's more like it. The reason why most visit Stratford-upon-Avon. Here's Shakespeare's house in Stratford-upon-Avon in England, and I promise more pictures in the next post here on my site! :)
Strictly speaking, isn't the Minories Shopping Mall in Birmingham? So how did this get here? I am confusing myself... hoho.
This is the famous clock tower on the left, and many people love to take pictures of this here at Stratford-upon-Avon. Also, this picture is how Stratford-upon-Avon looks like - a more representative picture for you to visualise visiting this very nice and lovely place!
OK, now I have to rush back to work... so more interesting pictures to come here on my travel site! Stay tuned :)

Tour and see the world with Gladys !! - last part on Cambridge :)
I have been awarded for my beautiful blogs and my friends have been praising me on my blogs, so thank you very much for reading and supporting me all this while! I try my best :) I have a nice travel blog here and my visitors are increasing day by day, so that's great - and soon I will have no time to reply to all my nice comments on my tagboard from all around the world. Hoho.
As you know this is a series on Cambridge in England, and here, as promised: the sights and sounds of Cambridge in England! I hope you enjoy the beautiful pictures, and here goes:
You didn't expect to see this here in Cambridge in England right? Neither did I nor Gladys my intrepid traveller friend. 
We call this a pasar malam in Singapore... so this concept is global :)
I thought this one was artistic, so I put it in... :)
And punting down the river and enjoying the sights and sounds of Cambridge in England is a must... did I mention I went punting when I was in Oxford in England? :) It was a very interesting thing to do there and I loved it very much.
And to cap it off: Cambridge in England! Well, that's how it looks :)
Wow, I've done so many posts about England. Well, it was a great time for me on student exchange there, so I was and am quite in love with beautiful England, although some might disagree. Anyways, bye for now, I'll be back soon to blog about the world :) Cheers!

Welcome back to my travel blog :) To my loyal and faithful readers: I'm really sorry I haven't had enough time to blog and write and post pictures because I have been very busy. I think this is the first and last time I will be apologising, because I am always busy, so please forgive me!! :)
This is a series on Cambridge in England, where my friend Gladys went to visit and have a look at the university and visit the city itself. Guess what today's post is about....? Yup it's about Cambridge university itself, of course. Let us tour around the university with my friend Gladys!
I myself wanted to study either at Cambridge or Oxford last time, when I was studying for my A levels, and then later found myself in the University of Manchester - so how interesting life is sometimes! Have you ever wondered how Cambridge looks like? Now you know :) Hope you enjoy the beautiful travel pictures!

I never had time to go down to Cambridge for a look, although I had visited and toured Oxford while in England. I also went punting down rivers in Oxford and had even visited the famous Harry Potter place... where you can see all the fun stuff on my travel site here - just refer to the sidebar for Harry Potter for Harry Potter fans, and Oxford for Oxford and England/academic/ studious/ whatnot fans.
Well, my friend Gladys went for a trip down to Cambridge, and there are many pictures of this great place that she shared with me. And since I have a travel blog, here's a section and series on Cambridge. Do enjoy the pictures on Cambridge and tour and see Cambridge through an intrepid traveller's eyes! :)
At first glance, a firsttime visitor might say that Cambridge is similar to Oxford, or other university places in England! :)
This was quite interesting, so here's the picture - of Beneficial Finance - what a name!
This is one of the reasons to love England - nice fields and lots of relaxation. Hard to find these kinds of things in Singapore! Seriously.
OK, I don't know why I put this one here, hahahaha! :)
Welcome to Cambridge! More pictures to come in future posts here on my travel site. I am sorry that I haven't been posting recently, but due to work - school work and many other activities that I've been up to, I haven't had as much as time as I wanted to explore the world and also post many pictures that I have here on my harddisk on my computer. Oh well. Stay tuned here!

Pictures from Cornwall and Charlestown, part 4
Pictures from Cornwall and Charlestown, part 4
Here is the last instalment on Cornwall and Charlestown in southwestern England :) Lots of interesting and nice pictures to share of this place.
In case you want easy access to the other segments and other pictures from Cornwall and Charlestown, places in England that one might want to visit and tour, here they are:
Pictures from Cornwall and Charlestown, part 1
Pictures from Cornwall and Charlestown, part 2
Pictures from Cornwall and Charlestown, part 3
This is a beautiful vehicle that you can see... and it's interesting too! :)
This one here is also very interesting as well... you can guess where these pictures came from right? Which places do you have to visit to see these? Faithful readers of my travel blog will know that only one place you can visit in Cornwall will have this kind of thing for you to look at - clue: it's very popular with tourists and visitors from all over the world... :P
This is, after all, England, and so people come here to see and visit England, quite naturally (not just look at statues and sculptures). This is a typical England scene.
This one is of course from Charlestown, the seaport that visitors and tourists like to go to. See the ships and boats in the harbour (the little and famous seaport) here at Charlestown!
And then here's a picture from the train, on the way back to Manchester - travelling away from Cornwall and Charlestown. As I've said, this is the miscellaneous post on Cornwall and Charlestown, so I do hope you've enjoyed the pictures of the Eden Project, Cornwall itself, and Charlestown and the sea. Many tourists, travellers and visitors love to visit and travel to these places in England, so do see the pictures and do please feel inspired to travel! Cheers and thanks for reading.
Tour and see the world with me and Gladys!

Charlestown! :)
Having seen Cornwall, here's the second part of the visit - Charlestown! Charlestown is a working port in St Austell, in Cornwall. There is a harbour to see here as well as several interesting beaches, nice lovely houses to see with interesting Cornwall - Charlestown architecture, and definitely this is quite an interesting tourist destination. There is one little catch though - it's a small place and only really worth a short visit! (Quite unlike the Eden Project, featured in the previous post, which is worth a longer time in terms of exploration because of its depth and size, literally and figuratively.) Let's have a look at Charlestown :)
Typical English country sight ... this is one of the common sights here in Charlestown, and there are many other places like this here in England.
The beautiful seaside, the marvellous rocky cliffs - the natural beauty of the place here in Charlestown is great!
Charlestown is also noted for being a port that people/tourists love to visit, and here's why...
The reality is that while it's beautiful, the place also looks rather simple - well it's just a sea port with an excellent view, so it can be explored and covered rather quickly.
Two ways to look at this - the road to Charlestown, or this is the end of the road... metaphorically? Excellent photography by my intrepid explorer friend, Gladys Lee.
In my final post on Cornwall and Charlestown I shall put up all the other miscellaneous and interesting pictures of the places for you to enjoy... hope you enjoyed the pictures and commentary!
Tour and see the world with me and Gladys!

So did you manage to guess what those domes were (the domes that Gladys visited while in Cornwall)? That's right - the Eden Project.
This entire post is devoted to the very interesting Eden Project! :) I have heard often that going to Cornwall, most people will visit the Eden Project because it is the largest and biggest tourist attraction there. Eco-loving people and environmentalists visit the Eden Project also, for obvious reasons other than us tourists. Here, I will share what the intrepid traveller Gladys shared with me on her travels and exciting time in Cornwall: information and interesting tourist facts and nuggets of information about the Eden Project!
First she saw this gigantic bee (don't worry, it's not real of course) at the Eden Project and that was a real sight to behold!
This is Gladys on the inside of the domes. The Eden Project is basically a gigantic greenhouse for both experimental and environmental education purposes. It simulates and showcases/ exhibits real ecosystems from all over the world and is very important for both educational and scientific research purposes.
More of the imposing domes from the outside... this is a common view, and you can get to see this on Wikipedia, thus visiting the Eden Project without even going and travelling to Cornwall in the UK! :)
Gladys taking a rest ... and taking a photo :)
A different angle of the eco domes and the greenhouses that make up the Eden Project...
There is also beautiful and amazing countryside all around, and a lot of greenery. 
And I wanted to show some flowers, so here they are! Haha just as decoration to my travel blog, because some of my visitors love plants, greenery and flowers. OK, that's enough about the Eden Project - so do come and visit Cornwall and have a look at the eco projects and all these interesting and educational exhibits and more at the Eden Project! I personally think that this is one good, noble and worthwhile project, and it's a great tourist and educational attraction, so you may wish to visit the Eden Project.
In the next post, more to come on Cornwall and Charlestown.
Tour and see the world with me - and Gladys!
