Day Two Beginnings
Aug. 24th, 2003 09:15 amDay one ended on a good note. The part of London I am in is not very club oriented, so not too much nightlife. I also hate going to these places solo. So... I ended up at the movies and saw "Pirates of the Caribbean". I had been wanting to see it for some time and the timing seemed good. While on the way, I and a couple of guys passed the "Finding Nemo" poster and I overheard them talking that they couldn't wait to see it. I remarked that it was an awesome movie and that they'll really enjoy it. I guess my American accent let them know how I had seen it. I didn't realize that the movies sometimes don't get released overseas for some time.
"Pirates" was an awesome flick. Love the special effects and stunts, which I think really made the movie. I will say that Johnny Depp was excellent, both creepy and humorous. Orlando Bloom and Keira Knightly make a good couple too.
Got my wake up call at 7:30 AM (that's 2:30 AM for the folks on EST back home, and it still feels like 2:30 AM for me right now). Packed up my bags and am waiting for my ride to Swindon in Wiltshire. I thought that since I was here for the next few hours, I'd check the email again.
Well, I'm off to walk around a bit more and then head back to the hotel. BBC TV is pretty limited, I guess the Brits aren't as TV-oriented as we Americans. They have four channels opposed to our twentysomething. Hopefully will have something more interesting to write about later.
