(Backup) I am in London

Arrived in London as scheduled Friday October 26, 2018.  Sarwat greeted me with a bouquet of flower a big smile and hug.  We got on the train and was at her place in no time.  She rents a room from her uncle’s friend .pregnant wife and two year old son. She has a nice big room and has access to the kitchen and bathroom. I was surprised that the family is Filipino.  But I should not have been. I have now been in London 5 days and realize that in London half the people non whites.

Getting back to my first day I was so exhausted the first thing I wanted to do was sleep. I took a nice long nap and when I woke up Sarwat had made for me a delicious Pakistani stew and rice. It was so good!!!!!

My English friend Josie Borst came to pick me. I was to spend the weekend with her then return to Sarwat’s.

I will stop here and tell you of my next adventure. It was truly amazing. Adios Amigos

I am so blessed and happy that Rick offered to house sit and take me to and from the airport.

We had dinner at the Beer Company where I was introduced to beer and food I never tasted before.  I enjoyed them. They were very good.
