Chapter 1339 Fog City
London, the capital of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, is the world's largest financial center and one of the most developed, richest, and highest living standards cities in the world.

At the same time, because of London's geographical location and climate characteristics, it is often foggy, making London also known as the foggy city.

Here, you can admire Buckingham Palace and feel the dignity of the British royal family, and you can also appreciate the rare treasures from "all over the world" in the British Museum.

Take a group photo under Big Ben, be baptized at Westminster Abbey, take a fat stroll on the Thames, and feel the magic of science at the Greenwich Observatory.

In short, London is the center of Britain, the center of Europe, and also the history of the whole of Europe.

Because when you look back at the entire history of London, you will find that it is the evolution history of the whole of Europe.

Today's London will usher in a world-renowned sports feast, that is, the Olympic Games.

The No.30 Olympic Games will soon be held in this city full of history and modernity.

In order to welcome the arrival of the Olympic Games, London has made perfect preparations.

The stadium guide signs that can be seen everywhere in the city, as well as the volunteers near the airport and the station, and even every traffic policeman have participated in the service of the entire Olympic Games.

As the official start of the Olympic Games is getting closer and closer, more and more national teams are coming to London, which is also testing the reception capacity of the organizing committee.

Including tourists from all over the world, they are also looking forward to having a good time in London and feeling the charm of the Olympic Games in person.

As the host of the last Olympic Games, the Chinese Olympic team arrived in London by special plane at noon local time and started their Olympic journey.

"I can't remember the last time I came to London. It seems that when I just became a teacher at Berkeley, I came to Imperial College London to exchange and study. It's been too long~, haha~"

After getting off the plane, Lan Shengli sighed.

Unlike other international competitions, in the Olympic games, athletes do not need to stay in hotels, but can directly live in the Olympic Village, which is the world of athletes.

So after the Chinese team arrived in London, they immediately took multiple buses that had been prepared to the Olympic Village.

The guard of honor who had been waiting at the gate of the Olympic Village played the "March of the Volunteers" and raised the five-star red flag.

Accompanied by the solemn flag-raising ceremony, the Chinese Olympic delegation officially moved into the Olympic Village.

"Dear~, I have successfully arrived at the Olympic Village~!!, don't worry~!!, everything is going well, and the environment of the Olympic Village is also very good, but it's a pity that I can't bring my family to live with me, haha~!!"

Lan Shengli recorded the environment in the Olympic Village, and as he spoke, he sent it to Mia.

There are many high-rise buildings in the Olympic Village, but there is not much taste of British architecture.

After all, if tens of thousands of athletes from all over the world lived in such small villas, the Olympic Village would probably be quite large.

Therefore, it is more reasonable to use a practical hotel-style building.

After all, in the context of the global economic crisis, London's hosting of the Olympic Games is considered by the public to be a waste of money.

But it is also because the Olympic Games can bring athletes and tourists from all over the world to London and the UK, which can also promote economic growth. Therefore, hosting the Olympic Games requires a lot of investment, and the subsequent benefits are also not small.

In addition to the buildings, such as artificial creeks, green lawns, and many landscapes, they are still very British.

Here, Lan Shengli has already arrived in his room.

In order to better prepare for the game, Lan Shengli lived in the same room as the team's chief assistant coach.

The two quickly packed up their luggage and made the bed.

After all, you have to live in the Olympic Village for at least half a month, so you must take care of your place first.

"Are you still training this afternoon~?!"

the teaching assistant asked.

"Let's stop practicing~, stop practicing~, after all, the team members must have been exhausted physically and mentally after the long journey to London, and they are also jet lagged, so let's stop for a while~"

Lan Shengli responded.

"Then the next training plan, do you want to change it~?!"

The teaching assistant continued to ask.

"I don't think it's necessary to change the training plan. Let's do it~ I'm tired today~ Let's take it as a vacation for the players before the Olympics~ Let them relax and use the most peaceful mind To welcome the game, only if they enjoy the atmosphere of the whole game first, can they work hard to play this game~”

Lan Shengli responded.

"Okay~, then I will inform the team members~"

The assistant coach nodded and said.

"It's just an afternoon vacation. You have to come back at [-]:[-] p.m., and you have to hold a video analysis meeting in the evening. You can't let these guys have too much fun, otherwise, it's easy to lose control~"

Lan Shengli added.

"Understood~, don't worry~"

The teaching assistant immediately continued to respond.

"Give the team members a vacation, but in fact, I also give myself a vacation~"

Lan Shengli thought to himself.

After packing his luggage, Lan Shengli was fully armed with a hat and mask, changed into the black casual clothes he brought, and came to the streets of London alone.

"Since the end of the NBA season, I have been busy, taking care of Mia, preparing for the wedding, and then returning to China to lead the team to prepare for the Olympics. I have never been able to find a chance to give myself a vacation so that I can adjust physically and mentally~ , Now such an opportunity has come~ Although it’s only half a day, even though I still have some back pain from the one-day flight, it’s not bad to have the opportunity to walk in the foggy city like I am now~”

Lan Shengli was wandering idly, thinking to himself.

Lan Shengli didn't go to the famous scenic spots with too many people, but came to a small park near the Olympic Village.

But because of the Olympic Games, many people gathered in the small park.

Different skins, different faces, and different words, but they are all enjoying the benefits of the Olympic Games.

Lan Shengli sat on the lawn, looking at the white-haired old man feeding the pigeons not far away.

Just watch intently and feel the leisure life of others.

Lan Shengli lay directly on the lawn, his body posing in the character "big".

"Although London is a big city, the people here have a slow pace of life, and they all enjoy life and the feeling of living in harmony with nature, which is wonderful~"

Looking at the slowly floating dark clouds in the sky, Lan Shengli sighed.

"click~"

Suddenly, a drop of rain hit Lan Shengli's face.
