Hong Kong to London, England

Big, big, big day! We arrived at Heathrow at 5.20am after a 17-hour flight. Thank God for sleeping tablets!

We got a free bus ride into Marble Arch which, as it turns out, is at the bottom of Edgeware Road. A 20-minute walk and a right turn later, and we arrive at the Mansions to wake everyone up at seven am.

We started the day off with a walk up to Church Street Markets and had a great fried breakfast.

We headed into central London to take a look around. Caught the No. 6 bus (my first Red London bus) down to Piccadilly Circus and saw the famous neon signs. Then Roberta, Troy, Beck, Reggae and Mansion Family members, Johnny Joiner, Lena & Alyssa, met up with Brett and Simone, and Brett’s cousin, at Leicester Square before heading over to Sheila’s (a dodgy Australian restaurant) for lunch.

Afterwards, we walked through Covent Gardens to the Naag’s Head pub for a couple of local ales. Then back home where the rest of the house begin their night out. For Roberta & I, jetlag kicks in and we are done.
