It has been just over a year since I returned home from Hong Kong so it should come as no surprise to anyone that knows me that I am anxious to hit the road on another cool trip. The question, this time is, where to? Well, fortunately for me, once again, I don't have to decide. Nor do I have to pay. My company is sending me on another international trip; this time to London, to help improve our current business relationship with the customer.

When I was very small (2-5 years old) my family lived in England but, obviously, there isn't a lot I remember about my time there. I also doubt, even if I remember specific locations, that I'd get much of a chance to revisit them. Unlike my Hong Kong trip there are four of us going on this one which, I think, will make the trip much more enjoyable. We will be there from the 4th-11th of October and will be working full days 6-10. Thus we will have the 4, 5, and each night to experience what London has to offer. I think I can safely speak for all of us in saying we're pretty excited about the opportunity.

So far I haven't gotten much advice on things to see, places to go, or food to eat while there so if you have been (or currently live in London) and you have some advice please share! I am meeting up with one guy - a fellow software developer - to deliver a carton of cigarettes but beyond that we have no set plans at all.

Just like with the Hong Kong trip I will be taking plenty of photos and posting them as soon as I get back.
