Today was a "work day". Meaning we weren't able to skate or do anything that we wanted to. Today was interview's for the Fuel TV show that is released in a couple months. Plus we wanted to see some of the sights so we mixed it up. Pretty cool.
First off was Buckingham Palace. Wait, I forgot to mention it was raining, which sucks for sightseeing, but we made due. Where was I, oh yeah Buckingham Palace: Kinda a bore, it was just a gate with the palace behind it. No guards, other then the ones we created for ourselves. see Azar photo Joey B. made a little friend real quick and was the entertainment of most the crew. Man that little guy can party.
The walk to Big Ben was awesome, because it was through a huge park, with tons of tree's we made friends with some squirrels, who Ryan Decenzo actually picked up and almost was able to pet. It was crazy that they weren't scared. Little piece of chocolate I guess goes a long way, especially for animals.
Once we arrived to the ole Big Ben, which is just a tower. I mean, its cool and old, but simply a clock tower. But when you got a group of goofs, even a clock tower is awesome. Next was the boats. We took these awesome boats from one end of the
river to the other and saw London from the middle of the water, instead of one side or another.
Basically we lerked really hard and just walked around the area for "work". What was a real treat was this London Eye, which is basically a huge ferris wheel type thing which takes like 45 mins to go all the way around and hung out for "work". Joey booked it early, because he had some "beer testing work" to do with Paul Shier. While the rest of us took cabs home for a little break.
So after a couple hours of maxing and relaxing, we headed out to a nice dinner with the crew and after a couple drinks, we started to let loose.
Oh did I mention it was our Team Manager Pete's bday? So it was really on! Drinks all around, shots, beers and more shots! I wish I could describe how we all felt when we woke up, but it wasn't a good thing.

First days in London are always good. Southbank is super fun, and just local London. I mean, this is one of the most famous cities in all of Europe, much less all of the world!
And its always good to start it off with a hearty breakfast. Omlelets was my choice and was scarfed down faster then ever. Jereme was in tow and he seemed ready to rip. Brezinksi on the other hand didnt seem as perky, it must have been the 20 beers on an empty stomach. That can do anyone in.
So a scenic walk to Southbank, across the bridge, and WHAAT!!! Southbank is closed! Kevin (our tourguide) told us he has never seen anything like that before! SOUTHBANK, CLOSED! But as most skaters do, the fence didnt stop us, we just skinnied right past it and started with the sesh. After a little while, security was called to the spot, and instead of kicking us out, they just moved the fence to seclude one spot, so we could skate the otherside. Pretty cool move in my thoughts.
Spot got pretty boring, so on our way to this other spot, we found this steeple or something, that we could skate the bottom. Everyone including Decenzo, Rogers, Vile and others joined in and made it skateable the best they could. It's awesome how sometimes the skateboarders eye can see something, and you can spend hours trying to figure how to skate it. So a couple hours later, we all took taxi's home, and started our dinner sesh. Not sure about our dinner situation, I think it involved wine, beer and steak. Its funny how the nights kinda fade off, and I find myself almost passed out by midnight.
