5th August, Day 20:
Isabel and I woke up at 10:30am, grabbed a quick breakfast and headed off to Harrods for the launch of Justin Bieber's someday fragrance! Boys in purple t-shirts sprayed us and the girls asked us for a photograph with them and a life size image of JB. Isabel's mum arrived and we bought the biggest bottle of perfume and whatever came with it! Then we went to a hat shop called New Era where I bought two hats. While waiting for our udon noodles to arrive we bought sweets from an old sweet shop next door. Once we finished eating we went to Regents Park. We wanted to paddle on a big paddling boat but Isabel's mum Florence didn't want too because she had a skirt on, so we me, Isabel and Lucas paddled in some bad small boats. We finished our ice cream and went to a great playground and took photos. We returned to Isabel's flat and went across to Bryanston Sqaure to take some pictures of us planking. We were playing baseball with Lucas' mitt it was fun! We also went to a great thai restaurant where I had fried rice and chicken curry.
4th August, Day 19:
We picked up my friend Isabel from her flat in marble arch and took the tube to harrods. Dad met up with us after lunch and we walked to the Serpentine lake in Hyde Park. They were preparing for the london triathlon around the lake. It started to rain, so we rushed to the nearest hotel, which was the Hyde Park hotel it was very smart, with bell boys in top hats and marble everywhere. We had cocoa and biscuits. After the rain stopped, we took a taxi back to Isabel's flat to pick up her clothes for a sleepover. We went to Covent Garden to watch Lion King :) IT WAS GREAT! after the amazing performance we went back home and slept.
3rd August, Day 18:
On the move again! Our friends from Malaysia, the Braidie's, have let us stay in they're house in East Sheen. Dad went to get the keys with a van full of all our luggage and then met up with us at Westfield shopping centre in Shepherd's bush. I got bored with the shops, so Dad and I went to the park where I had a swinging competition with a Somali girl I won! We then had a pizza and caught a bus and the train back home.
2nd of August, Day 17:
Surprise surprise-we got up late! Dad had to see his friends for lunch, so we followed him to the tube station. He went to Goodge Street and the rest of us went to Harrods. I found the Harry Potter elder wand that my friend Ariadna wanted. We had lunch in the frozen yoghurt section of Harrods, then we went to check if I could get my ears pierced. We booked an appointment for 1pm tomorrow. I'm a bit nervous about it. In the evening, we saw a GREAT MUSICAL called love never dies by Andrew Lloyd-Webber. The singing was fantastic and the storyline just carried you along. I was gripped from beginning to end. I clapped and cheered when the troupe came out for their applause. Then we had a long journey back to the hotel.
1st of August, Day 16:
It was another hot day in London, with clear blue skies. I started the day with a cool slice of melon. We met up with Alissa's old friend Alex, her Mum, brother Jack and sister Emma for lunch. We had burgers, chips and ben & jerry's ice cream. yum yum! Afterwards, we went back to the hotel while Alissa went off to the park with Alex. At 6:00pm, we took a taxi to Finchley Central to have a birthday dinner for Ren-he was 17. Before the others arrived we waited in Finchley park and had relay races, I fell into the flower bed and stepped on a acorn and I still won! The turkish food we had was good but a little bit spicy. We got back to the hotel after dark. I ♡ FACEBOOK!

31st of July, Day 15:
I woke up around 10:45, by 12:00 we had to be out of the room and ready to leave paris! At 12:00pm we all walked out of the hotel we were staying in and made our way to the Eurostar train station. we boarded the eurostar at 2:00 and arrived in London at 3:30. A taxi driver picked us up and took us to chiswick. When we arrived we met up with Han zhi and Uncle En hao as we settled in.
30 July - Day 14
I was so tired that I could not wake up to join Dad, Alissa and Ren in their trip to Le Louvre. Instead, I followed Mum and Aunty Kim on a shopping trip to Les Galeries La Fayette. I had my eyelashes lengthened so that I looked like a puppy. We returned to the hote with all our bags loaded with gifts for family and friends. Dad, Alissa and Ren returned at about 6pm completely exhausted. They had walked from Le Louvre to Place des Vosges, a beautiful square past the Ile de la Cite on the Rive Droite (right bank. We took the metro to St Germain for supper. St Germain is the Latin quarter on the Rive Gauche (left bank) and had a different atmosphere from the Rive Droite, which is more posh. I had cheese fondue but couldn't finish it. Outside our restaurant, a clown was imitating people walking by. He was very funny, epsecially when one woman thought he was her husband. She jumped three feet in the air when she turned to see him! We had another crepe - my third in one day - and went back to the hotel.
