Parents week.


October came so fast. My parents had been planning the big trip across the pond to the mighty UK for a few months now and now they are here. After an hour in the tube I arrived at Heathrow airport only to walk out from the tube and see My mom and dad waiting for me. I had planned to be their before them and had a sign made welcoming them to London.

Their first big day in London I dragged them to the first place that pops into peoples mind, Buckingham Palace. After our visit to the queens quarters we ventured around the parks and towards the Hour of Parliament and Big Ben. Four hours later we had walked enough for a day and ended our day at a Pub near Kensington eating a pub favorite of fish and chips.


This entire week has been filled with seeing the sights and running around town with my parents. Its been amazing! Its good to be a tourist in the city where you are living. Its good i have some sense where I'm going day to day and know how to get around on the tube. My dad seems to know more about some bits of London then I did. He did his research.


After some time in my courses I'm getting into some of the lectures and projects we are working on. My web production class might not be exactly what I expected. I walked into a PC based lab and he told us to open dreamweaver. In the course I will have time to get a new updated website for my personal work.

Besides for for my parents in town and a week of classes, everything in still great in London. Even better, get to have a day excursion to Paris! I'm going to need a vacation after this week. After all the walking, hours on tube and nights of class work i will be burnt out.

I also entered my resume into a competition as well as some pictures for a chance to win some cash. Here's a few of the pictures. Maybe i can make a income off of winning some stuff in London.
