I learned about Madame Tussauds wax museum when my Thai friend showed me photos some years ago on her visit to the said museum in London. I thought it was the only place where this museum can be found. But Madame Tussauds know where it should stand among the crowds. Just recently opened in Berlin, my illusion of posing with prominent figures has finally come true, hahaa! Hubby and me didn’t exactly know it was there at all, but at any circumstance he found out the next day we were there. And even not too long from the hotel we were staying.
Look who’s happy to see Dalai Lama. They can be good friends, am sure of that. They must have talked about many things like the future of Tibet or the Olympic Games, who knows, hehee.
No matter what they’ve talked about, I was busy posing with my fave George Clooney, hahaa. Is Ocean’s Fourteen coming yet?
But don’t be fooled by these pictures as if we really have met these prominent icons. They’re only wax, human-sized and alluringly real-looking. Perhaps it’s fascinating to visit Madame Tussauds when you’re in London, Amsterdam, Las Vegas, Hong Kong, New York, Shanghai, Washington D.C. and Berlin.
By the way, we’re back from the holiday. We decided to just stay in Berlin as the weather hasn’t been so good. The rains almost stopped us from going out of the hotel. And hubby has got flu. But it’s always nice to be back at the comfort of home after being away.

Farah says
I want to visit Madamme Tussaud one day too, especially the one in London. My sis and dad went to the one in Vegas recently, but they said those wax figures doesn’t look too real, it looks kinda funny. They couldn’t even recognise some in fact!
Marlene says
Farah, I wish to visit the one in London, too and pose with Lady Di, hehee. Yeah, some figures don’t look natural at all, like Madonna and Beyonce in Berlin, they look sooo wax, lol!
Farah says
oh yeah, I saw those oily waxy figures from the Madamme Tussaud in Las Vegas, they dont look real and its pissing off to pay so much and not to get something of high quality and standard.
jessie says
Mhy,
Nagulat ako sa mga pics. Parang totoo in fairness. Galing ng pagkakagawa kay George Clooney.
Marlene says
Fren, ang iba parang totoo talaga, pero meron ding hindi. Hehee, buti na nga lang at nakaupo si GC. Ang tatangkad kasi nila, halata masyado ang height ko kapag nakatayo din, hahaa!
Brenna says
Wax Museum is one of the places that you can visit. It is a human in the form of wax to make it life-sized and life-formed.
