I've visited my friend in Singapore so often that it's about time he and his wife came to visit London. So here they are on their European honeymoon. I was so excited to greet them and just seeing the awe in their eyes they arrived in my neighbourhood was a joy.
Having come from a hectic densely populated Asian city, staying in a villagey place of London in springtime was a happy start to their honeymoon. I'm proud that they loved my area and also my favorite neighbourhood cafe.
On the first evening I took them to Hampstead for crepes, which I promised were better than the crepes in Paris.
On the last night before departing for Paris, Grant and I took them to Four Seasons which was agreed to have the best Chinese BBQ duck in the world. Afterwards we gave a walking tour of the landmarks of London.
At night London is even more beautiful with glowing lights and fewer crowds.
Their stay with us was too short but I was off to Paris to meet them on the following Saturday. Hurrah!
(Note: Group photos of us are care of my friend who's a photographer in Singapore.)
