Vacancies Available

Joe and I have been fortunate enough to see a few friends drop by London recently -- Chief Resident Jack Liu and his girlfriend Angela, crazy UCLA-ers Jimmy, Robert, Shane and Alan. Our cozy little flat has been playing host to a few lucky lads that got to learn the secret to turning the hot water on in the shower, and feel the frustration of unlocking 5 locks before getting home. Thanks for coming by Eddie, Simon (sko's brother), and Frankie! Vacancy will be available starting this Friday. Book soon! :)

Also had lunch our friend Rich Won today, who filled in 'El Escritor' as his job/company when he had to make a name tag for himself at Google Reception. He's a writer :). Rich said everytime he looks at our photos he feels like we're rubbing it in everyone's faces - how much fun we are having living in London. Well here's more! :) (And we genuinely hope this will convince you to visit us soon!)

It was nice to have my brother visit us. We got to do all the touristy things we never had time to do :). Science Museum - Pixar Exhibit, Windsor Castle, Stonehenge, Bath (city outside of London).

Building Stonehenge Next Stage Round Do Not Touch

My brother and I had a ball taking photos of everything sight. Finally got the chance to break in my new Canon 30D digital SLR. Here are a few of my favorite shots...

I also made a new friend in Stonehenge. His name is Sheep :). I've been wanting a sheep stuffed animal ever since our 3 Peaks hike last month, where we saw sheep every where! His new home is on my desk at work. I showed him to my boss, who said "mooooo!" (he's French, nothing else can explain that).

Joe and I had the opportunity to see Charlie Chaplin's granddaughter, Aurélia Thierrée, perform a surreal yet playful show called Aurelia's Oratorio. I'm bringing Simon, Frankie, and a group of friends to see it again this week. Happened to catch some great shots outside the theater the first time we went. I luv how it doesn't get dark in London until about 10pm now. If only it could be warmer! Still in the 40's, and I'm more pale than I was when living in New York!
