*Cue the Olympic Anthem*

Posted on by
Welcome to the London 2012 Olympic Games! It seriously feels like the entire world is here. I thought the tube was crowded the first week… man was I wrong. Other than the crowds in the tourist spots it hasn’t been very bad, actually! I’m excited to meet all of these different people and get accustomed to living in a big city. Every time I’m in the lounge I’m watching the games. I love seeing them broadcast in different countries than America because it’s a completely different atmosphere. The opening ceremony was fantastic and it was great to watch with native Londoners. (Especially while watching the Queen.) I loved that I recognized almost all of the stars in the show! I laughed especially hard when I saw Kenneth Branagh and Rowan Atkinson. It’s hard to remember just everything that happened, so hopefully these photos will help;

All of a sudden… MARK GATISS!

Aaaaaand then I met The Doctor. 🙂

I accomplished my mission of having him sign my artwork, too.

I worked right up until the night of the show on this puppy.

We were lucky enough to get tickets to Antigone at The National Theater starring Christopher Eccleston. Little did we know that we’d be meeting Mark Gatiss on the same night!

Look at those wonderful rings!

I honestly couldn’t get over how beautiful the London Bridge looked… especially with the rings gleaming in the sun. It’s like the city itself was proud.

What’s that? The Olympic Torch?!

I went to Dublin!

I fell instantly in love with Dublin. The people there are so accommodating and nice. You just want to stay there forever.

Fandom feelings arising in Cardiff.

The Doctor Who Experience in Cardiff was fantastic. I was reverted into a ten year old the second I walked in the doors. (Which was hard because it was windy) I even got to fly the TARDIS!  Becky

All of time and space… everything that ever happened or ever will… where do you want to start?

  1. Holy cow!!! How does this happen to you?! I am IMMENSELY jealous that you met Christopher Eccleston. I love him a lot. Anyway, this is wonderful. I’m supposed to be visiting Dublin this weekend and London later this month. I’d love to walk around the bigger cities and see what the culture is like there, and if people act differently than they do around here.
