18th & 19th November 2007.

Were really amazing days. PHOTO TIME. [Long journal entry.]

Day 1
Got off the Tube (which I adored), got lost for about 45 minutes until we found the hotel in Covent Garden. When we actually saw our room, it was wow;

After we got settled in, we had to go to dinner then. Add another 40 minutes getting lost, the pouring rain, hair and clothes sticking to you equals two very unhappy people. We eventually got there;

---------------I didn't realize there was quite so many of us.

The place is exactly what people say it is. It's colourful, it's fun, you can keep remote control cars on your desks. It's like, amazing. The rest of the afternoon was spent eating, in the workshop, filming little videos, eating again and really funny science stuff.

No, I didn't win.
But the girl who did deserved it. Go and look on Google right now, and you'll see it.

I miss London an awful lot already. I really, really want to go back. But damn, I came back with really sweet memories. [/corny]
