ICHEN RIVERSIDE PARK

Another weekend in Southampton. Tomorrow will be my 2 month stay in Southampton. Meaning that next month I will be completing my first session of research work in Soton.
Today early in the morning already woke up and went for jogging. Jogging with jacket in the cold weather. After that, started my journey to Ichen Riverside Country Park. There are many parks in this area. As I mentioned before, English really know how to enjoy their life. Retiree will bring their lovely pet, dog to walk in the park. Their children have grown up, so dog is their only companion. They treat the dog like their own child. The dog has their special name, good food provided and everything for them.
Evening joined the Eastleigh Town Centre Christmas light up celebration. It is a happening fiesta with fun fairs and fire works display. I really enjoyed it.

NETLEY

Sunday is always my most anticipated day in a week. And I always pray to have a nice weather so that I can go for cycling at some interesting places. Today I go to Netley. Why I want to go there? Any special reason? mn.... because of the Netley abbey, Netley castle, Victoria Royal Country Park and Netley beach. Started my journey this morning at 9.30a.m, and arrived home at 5.20p.m in the dark. My bike lights batteries already flat. So, all the way I was quite worry. Worried about police and cycling in the dark, no 'play-play'!
