Olympic fever...

The last two and a half weeks in London have been amazing thanks to the Olympics. It was almost like we had the world over as house guests and everyone behaved impeccably. Even the weather played ball. Parks were occupied by big screens and beer trucks, Puma decided to dedicate a whole yard to sport and jerk chicken and even I decided to step up my fitness thanks to being inspired by those beach volleyball players' bodies. Everything that we thought would go wrong didn't and London seemed alive again. It was like we temporarily shrugged off the shackles of every day life, forgot the griping and just let ourselves enjoy the city we lived in for a change. Even Nai Nai got in on the act with some fabulous outfits for her Olympic-watching park action...



I was lucky enough to take in some tai kwan doe at the Excel with Nai Nai and hubby and it was truly an amazing experience. It's great to be able to tell Nai Nai when she's older that we went to London 2012, like she already a little part of history. So now it's all over what do we do? We await the Paralympics of course! Bring on the Superhumans....
