Day trip to Birmingham
So me and the girls spontaneously decided to go to Birmingham today. Quite random, I know, but hey I'm eager to see any new, decent sized British city. And I think Birmingham is the 3rd biggest city in the UK...? Anyways, we went there, and I really enjoyed myself!
On the train~

First, we walked through their huuuge mall next to the central station. It was massive.
Grand Central!

Then we went to the Museum and Art Gallery to look around. We ended up sitting on a bench talking heavy stuff and shit (maybe because of the gore paintings around us? lol) before we moved on and found that they had a special "try wearing a turban" thingy going on with some Sikhs helping you tie one of their turbans. It felt super strange, and even a bit offensive (since we're not Sikhs ourselves), wearing the turbans but we looked kinda flawless haha!
Town's Hall (I think...)
First thing you see inside the museum....

Then we walked around a bit more, passed the library, and went towards the canal and checked out that area. It was really pretty there with all the small canal boats and stuff.
The library. How epic?

After that we started getting hungry and found a French restaurant we're we spoiled ourselves with a three course dinner. It was fabulous.

Then we started walking back to the station and walked around the shopping mall a bit more before jumping on the train back home to London. So overall, Birmingham wasn't THAT special, but I still had a great day exploring a new city!
British countryside on the way back home~
