Day 237: Interesting Marathon in London

Date: 26 April 2009

I was soundly asleep before I was awaken by the blast of loud music and the cheering of the crowd. It was then I realised that a marathon was on going right at my door step. What interest me more was that people dress up and ran for the marathon to send a message. Be it love the animals, care for the environment etc etc... I even saw people dressing up as superheros and cartoon characters. Whatever the purpose was, it was fun watching....

How the hell do you run in these attire????































Super Heros.....







Team effort running.....









Soldiers took the chance to do a route march.... Interesting....



Fireman too....



All these, happening from the Flora Marathon in London.



Enough of the marathon.... Its time to enjoy a great breakfast prepared by my host.... And its FREE.......



NOT......

Nothing in the world comes free... After breakfast, I helped out by doing a mass house cleaning.... I worked for my food and accomdation ok??? I am not a free loader.... :)







More washing??





Well... Whats after washing?? Its time for a BBQ dinner... and oh.. if you are wondering, yes... that washing took one whole day....









I got all these free gifts from the Singapore Day Event yesterday and I am now sorting them out and I will give them out to kids in Africa!!! Thats right... I am going to AFRICA tomorrow!!! So EXCITED!!!!!! One month in africa.....



We then ended the day by intoxicating ourselves while playing the game "Indian Poker". It was fun introducing this game to fellow mates whom had never played it before. They too, enjoyed.



After spending almost half a year touring around Europe, I am finally moving onto another continent tomorrow. AFRICA awaits....... Stay tune fellows..... :)
