Off to London to visit the Queen

We stayed a week in Nottinghill to savour the sights, sounds and Malaysian food in London over Christmas. The only thing we didn't do was shop on Oxford street; we did go to Bonda by Suffold Gardens for several meals, once to Malaysia Hall and several Chinese restaurants serving halal Malaysian food.

The sights high on the list was the Sherlock Holmes museum on Baker Street with Aisya being an ardent fan. Ali was sufficiently amused with the halal Kentucky Fried Chicken a couple of blocks away.

We went to several major museums to savor the collections on show. And spent quite some time in Hyde Park just running around since it's only a few minutes walk from the apartment we were staying at.
