Yeah!! I guess this was the best part of the trip for Dear..his long awaited trip to Old Trafford!
Both of us wore the Man U jerseys on that day...and yea..it was an interesting experience haha..
I was at London, trying to buy some drinks from a convenience store, when the cashier claimed that he doesnt serve Man U fans..and I was left stunned for a short while! We reached Manchester...and a lady from afar saw us..screamed at her top of her voice..exclaiming that "Man U rules!"
I was a little embrassed in fact..haha..while Dear was enjoying himself..and so I put on a jacket to conceal the jersey ;)
Us at Old Trafford!
Sir Matt 's statue
We reserved a museum tour at 2pm..and was greeted with many exhibits that depicted a rich history of Manchester United formation, the trophies won, the important matches, the leadership..the coaches etc..I'm not an ardent fan actually, going to this Museum has enriched me whole load of information on all these aspects..as for the ardent fan??...he's busy finding the fav phototaking spots since he has absorbed all the history long long before he came haha!
Our tour guide

His Idol!
Well, if you ask who do I admire in the Man United team, it has got to be Ryan Giggs!haha...
and after the museum tour, we had a meal at the Red Cafe..watched one of the World Cup matches there..rested..before making our way to the city area...
I must say he was really elated to be able to visit the stadium!...can see from his face haha!
Manchester is bigger than Cambridge..more vibrant..we had our dinner in one of the restaurants there..however, there werent too much choices except for the usual bread and chips... sitting at the benches and watching the world passed by was a leisure time that I adopted during this journey...the breeze was cool at that time I recalled..many pigeons awaiting for someone to feed them with leftover bread crumbs..
But if I have a choice, I will still prefer to stay in London...for the convenience, for the lifestyle, for the accessibility, and the entertainment that the city can offer..and so we covered our last day of Europe...walking aroung London Bridge..more to come in the next blogpost~
