Disclaimer: Between jet lag, pints, walking tours, vodka and false warnings about bars closing at midnight my brain power is functioning at only a fraction of it's regular horsepower and this is going to be a quickie post.
We arrived safely in London yesterday morning their time - I'm still not sure what my time is. Although I didn't get off to the best start after I cleaned off my spilt coffee and rearranged the onerous backpack I am pleased to say that I officially mastered the London train and subway system. (FYI if anyone is ever looking for an Amazing Race navigator you should totally shortlist me - it's a gift).
Anywho, we made it over to Chad's flat which including us is currently housing 8 flatmates and much to my chagrin contains no visual references to Mary Poppins.
We met up with Cam and Emily pretty quickly and toured around Notting Hill and Hyde Park in an effort to avoid the mass insanity of the London City Marathon. It was a fantastic day with occassional brilliances of weather.
Chad met up with us and we sauntered down Oxford Street into Soho for dinner before we engaged in the time-honoured British tradition of getting laquered and being flirty. We dumped off our stuff and finished the night in Vauxhall where we met up with former Calgarian and newly-minted Londoner Matt.
With Chad and Cam working today we're putting on our finest fanny packs and getting our inner-tourist worked out. Better pics today (I swear).
