4th July

Completed morning program.
Witnessed tennis in Central  Court at Wimbledon along with Amolikaa. Watched matches between Andy Murray & Andreas Seppi, Jelena Jankovic & Petra Kvitova and Federer &  Sam Groth besides others in different open courts. The matches started from 1pm and continued upto 8.30 pm. These were all absorbing and best players. Apart from these, 'it was double delight for Indian fans at the Wimbledon on Saturday as Leander Paes moved into the pre-quarterfinals with partner Daniel Nestor and Sania Mirza to Round 3 in the mixed doubles event.'Although  Amolikaa left earlier, I continued hopping from one court to another till the last game.Wimbledon has 19 courts. Could not get vegetarian sandwich to eat. It was all either chicken with chicken or mutton or beef. I survived with two sandwiches kept by Ruchi in our carry bag and coffee from Food court of Wimbledon. Amolikaa was happy and cherishing her hotdog. She agreed to be vegetarian in due course on my invocation.  The sun sets here around 9.30 pm and rises at about 4.45 am. Could not buy a newspaper as we had to leave for Wimbledon quite early. So there was no briefing of children about news of the day. Will cover it next day.
