2017-10-18 - Rockingham Live (Part. 5): Hostel: Palmers Lodge Swiss Cottage

I went to Swiss Cottage by tube, it took about an hour to get there. I left my luggage at hostel, and then went back to Swiss Cottage for my next stop: the legendary venue Wembley Stadium.

Those photos were taken on 19th except the last photo in Swiss Cottage station was taken on 18th, because I hurried to Wembley Stadium.

Received gift from 퍼블릭폰(Publicphone) bassist 송현호(Song Hyeon Ho), those were the band latest album and very hard to find now. I then ripped the CD to wav files and copied them to my smartphone, gonna listen to it through a long flight.


I did not pack my luggage last night, so I hurried to pack my luggaue and went to the airport. In the end I only took two UNIQLO heattech long sleeve t-shirts, I should took one more.

I was worried about heavy rain in London, so I was wearing my cowboy boots, and I had a pair of Converse in my lauggage.
