Manhattan

The Empire State building is looking quite patriotic dressed in good ole' Red, White and Blue. If you look far in the distance you can almost make out The Flag on The Moon.

I captured this image on my phone from The Queen of Hearts party-boat docked crossed the East River in Weehawken, NJ. I was volunteering for Disorient's party last night. I helped with pre-party set up and had a great time. I haven't heard back yet on how the party went, but you can't go wrong on a boat riding around the island of Manhattan to the tune of major NYC DJ's playing House, Dub Step and Techno music. I look forward to assisting them with some up-and-coming construction on their huge geodome to be used in future events.

Google Disorient if your are the curious type like me.

To behead, or not to behead...

Tower of London was built in the 11th century and some of it still stands today. Queen Anne Boleyn was beheaded here in 1536. The last hangings took place in 1780 on Tower Hill where I was standing when taking this shot. The grassy area was where the moat was which was filled by the Themes which flows very close by. Tower Bridge is just down the way.

Tower Bridge

After a rough, busy start to the London office visit, me, Tom and Gary were able to cut out a few hours early today and see some sights. Gary (my counterpart in London) was very kind to be our tour guide. Tom's goal was to see Buckingham Palace...done. My goal was to see Big Ben...check. Gary's tour included many more famous sites which were accompanied by his knowledgeable commentary.

Shoreditch

This was taken from the front entrance of the hotel in the Shoreditch area of London. It stopped raining, but regardless there are many cyclists and motor bikers...so much so that I felt it worth mentioning there are many, rain or not.

Heathrow

Once I landed and made it out to the car service I noticed this squad car. BMWs, Mercedes Benzs, Ford Fiestas and Volvos seem very popular vehicles here. You always know they drive on the left and the wheel is on the right, but until I saw it in person it was just an oddity to me.

Snow Storm in Brooklyn - cont.

Here is a shot of my street from my front window as of 9am this morning. Our street remains impassable. All train lines are suspended except the 7 (Manhattan). Most bus lines are also suspended. No worries, I am nice and toasty by the radiator in the living room with a hot cup of Earl. Enjoy the holidays!
