Touring China

It’s been a busy time for me of late, but I am enjoying it. The wedding and honeymoon were great, but I was off to China, pretty soon after returning home.

 

I have had a fantastic trip so far with Speedo! And I have Jim Wilson along with me to report for Channel 7 and News Limited.

 

My cuts from the reef coral are on the mend. It was serious but not as dire as it looked on the TV.  I was in a medical centre, not a hospital and while I was there I had 3 sessions on a drip & antibiotics.

 

The infection didn’t stop me carrying on with my trip. I met with the Chinese head coach & a bunch of their top swimmers to share training tips.

 

I went to the Dawn Service at the NZ Embassy for Anzac Day, and laid a wreath. It was an honour.

 

After that I went to the Great Wall for some sightseeing, and was shocked to see the hilarious sight of rabbits at the Great Wall of China – guess they do need to keep the rabbits out after all! For proof check out my MMS Gallery.

 

I then went to Shanghai for some clinics and am now off to Hong Kong.

 

Take care – Grant.
