London, with friends

London is my second rest stop, again to catch up friends. It has been lovely, being able to catch up with most friends. Surprisingly, I managed to catch the sun in London too.

I stayed with Fiona and Steve in their beautiful home. It was so good to have a home and friends to go home to. Steve also cooked up a storm and we had some wonderful home-cooked dinner.

Thanks to Louis, I had a hair cut and wonderful massage from Doyle who came back from her leave. Anyone who needs a hair cut and a head, shoulder and upper back massage in London, drop me a note to get Doyle's contact details.
I met up with PJ in Oxford for a pub lunch.

Then stayed overnight at Rosie and Mike's for a fantastic barbecue.

When I first met the twins, they were just babies. They have started school now! They are so adorable. Abigail thinks I am 14 years old (Brilliant!) and Emma thinks I look like Dora the Explorer. I think they will become Team GB's best rugby players when they grow up.

I visited Katrina and she treated me to a great lunch.


We saw some amazing plants and a cute ladybird near her home. She also introduced the Letchworth Garden City and showed me the first roundabout in UK.

Qiujie and I went to Team GB and ParaIympicsGB athletes' parade.

We also had a picnic at Richmond Park and it felt like we were back in Africa.
