Celebrating 60 Years of Her Majesty!

From left to right: Christoph, Anja, Max, and Mareen.
   I made it back to London after a week in Germany in order to celebrate the Queens Diamond Jubilee. I spent the weekend with Anja (who I'm staying with while I'm back in London), Mareen (who I spent Easter with), and than two of Mareen's friends form home who happened to be visiting (Max and Christoph). The five of us had fun trying to see the Queen on the Themes, unfortunately there were about a billion other people trying to do the same thing. And going to Hyde park to watch the concert on these huge screens, once again along with the rest of London. But there were some amazing fireworks at the end of the show. After the show we all went to a pub for drinks and some dinner so Anja and I didn't get back to her place until 2am. And at that point I still hadn't packed to my flight to Oslo that left at 8 in the morning! So I got a grand total of 45 min of sleep last night before I had to get up to catch the bus to the airport. But even half asleep I made it on my flight and to Oslo!
I think all of England showed up at the Themes
on Sunday. 
This was the closest I got the
the Queen!


Hyde Park where everyone gathered to
watch the concert. 


Fireworks!
