English Breakfast

It is said English food is too much volume. These are English Breakfast. But a little special and it's so gorgeous. Mostly, it is more easier in normal day.


This is fresh fruits juice and a few kind of fruits. In addition, people eat yogurt or serial.
I saw English men who bring many serials at the hotel in Yokohama. Maybe the hotel's break fast baking is Japanese food.
They add much milk and fruits jams.






This is main English break fast. The menu is bacon, sausage, mushrooms, grilled tomatoes and scrambled egg. Sometimes people eat soy beans.







This is triangle toast and sunny-side up eggs(medamayaki) . Most of people eat toast with butter, jam, marmalade and marmite.

About England

England has four seasons like Japanese. In addition time difference is 9 hours between England and Japanese but during summer time is 8 hours. England has many famous building such as building, food and music.
Now, I will introduce about very famous building. I picked up two places in many lists. Both of them are London.






Westminster Abbey

Westminster locates Mill Bank along with Thames river. It is the World Heritage Site with Westminster monastery. But now, it is used as the House of Parliament. It has 1000 rooms and length is 300 meters.
But in 1834, it was disappeared by big fire. So Charles Barry was reconstructed in 1870. Nevertheless in 1941, this was destroyed by the Luftwaffe. After that, in 1950, Giles Gilbert architected West minster Place.





Big Ben

Big Ben is the very big bell on the House of Parliament. Its height is 97 meters and weigh is 13 tons. It rings loud chime to Thames river every 15 minutes.
The House of Parliament was constructed in 1850 and the reader of it was Sir Benjamin Hall. Big Ben was named after his name. On July 11th was 150 anniversary this ring. So some letters wrote on the wall and the ring picture lighted up there.
