London - Europe 2010
2:11 PM
G'day everyone
Again I'm off on travels, this time, the end goal is Oktoberfest in Munich Germany but for now, the start is London, UK.
As I've been to London a few times before, there isn't a whole lot to say here. We (four of us) are staying at a hostel near King Cross Station, which is nice enough but the rooms are tiny.
We had a big day our first full day in London. After doing some shopping on Oxford Street in the morning, where I went nuts on the credit card(s), we went to Fullham to see Fullham play the Wolves in the English Premier League. Was a great match that the home side eventually won 2-1. After the game, grabbed some dinner in the area near the hostel before having a power nap til midnight. At midnight, we got up and headed for Ministry of Sound club. Fedde Le Grand was playing and the place was packed. The club itself doesn't look like much from the outside but it packs a killer sound and lighting system which is 2nd to none. So loud but so clear. Amazing.
Next day I did some more shopping before catching up with an old Deloitte colleague from my Germany days, Emir, who took me for a nice lunch. After a lovely afternoon catching up, I rejoined the lads and took in a comedy club in Leicester Square that evening. Acts weren't bad and got a few laughs.
Monday there wasn't much to report, last minute shopping then a flight to Amsterdam. Next update from there.
Cheers gov,
Dave
