Today's the longest day in summer, with 17 hours of daylight.
Visited the Royal College of Surgeons Museum with Jialun and Kaiping. It was a nice visit, and quite an eye opener into the development of the practice of Medicine, and surgery specifically. I was surprised by how far back surgeries and medical procedures were employed in medical practice! It's really amazing how the surgeon and anatomist John Hunter was so ahead of his time, and how ideologies and concepts he developed are still very relevant today. He clearly was ahead of his time.
Afterwhich, we had lunch at this pub, with a "2 for £7.49" offer. We had 4 meals between the 3 of us, sharing a Caesar's Chicken Salad - which was great. A filling meal for 5 quid each.
We split up after that - KP went to Madame Tussaud's while Jialun went to National Gallery; I went to Piacdilly Circus to purchase the rest of my kites from Lilywhites.
I went to buy espresso beans and had them ground for Uncle Peter, as well as bought chocolate milk and chocolate mousse from Marks & Spencer. The chocolate desserts are really good. I got back just before 5pm, with two hours to pack now.
Have to pack very quickly now, because I have to leave Sydenham HIll for Beckenham where I'm staying tonight. I'll be meeting Aunty Cynthia, Uncle Robert, Aunty Anne and Andrew for dinner (which I will treat them to).
I fly off tomorrow at 9pm (4am Singapore time) and arrive in Singapore at 5.15pm (Singapore time). My flight's BA0011.
See you guys soon. Will update the rest of the photos and trip when I get back.
Love.
