It's Snowing in London!




Due to some operational reasons pertaining my work, I had to make my way to London at a very last minute. I had very limited time to prepare and pack. Nonetheless, the pulling power of London will surely make me smile each time I visit this city, no matter how sudden the trip is. I simply love London and the people I always see there.

Upon landed into Heathrow, the temperature recorded was 2 degrees Celcius yesterday morning. Early this morning, the temperature was minus 2 or 4 I heard.

Yesterday, without my winter boots, I braved myself out in the cold to visit my all-time favourite supermarket, Whole Foodsmarket in High Street Kensington. I bought some organic muesli in preparation for my Swiss Aunt's visit to Singapore soon. She's a light eater and I thought Swiss Muesli would be perfect for her.

Later in the afternoon, I have made plans with my former college mate for a late lunch and some catching ups. I am absolutely excited in meeting her as it's been like 4 years since I last saw her. Another highlight is always to meet up Danny's cousin and her family. As I'll be spending my Christmas with them in a few days time, I will definitely have a memorable one. They even promised me a white Christmas and have been preparing some fake snow indoor, just in case it doesn't snow outside. How hospitable these people are!

The sun is up now. I can't wait to get out there and take the whole London in!

Merry Christmas to all my friends and loved ones!
