2009.09.29 - London Day 3

The final day in London. After a cruise on the River Thames we went to see St. Paul's Cathedral and walked to Westminster Abbey. A very nice walk and the weather was good, lots of sunshine. We also took a walk besides the Thames. After that Nicole went shopping in Oxford street and of course like every women, she had to buy lots of clothes. We took the train back to Gatwick Airport, just a quick diner for fish and chips and fly back to Amsterdam. We almost missed our flight :) never do that again......but back at home sweet home Swifterbant at 23:00h and at work again on friday. Pictures will be posted soon.

2009.09.28 - London Day 2

Day 2 in London. After a good night sleep I wanted to take a shower at 07:30h but no warm water, so we had to take a shower in the public section of the hotel, BAH again. They promissed that we get an upgrade to a suite with private shower and toilet. I forgot to mention that yesterday evening we saw I fox in front of the hotel in the middle of London!!! After a traditional English breakfast we went to the Big Ben and the House of Parliament by metro. After that we saw the Changing of the Guards at Buckingham Palace. In the afternoon we took a Hop On Hop Of Bus for sightseeing London, famous places like Piccadilly Circus, the Tower Bridge, London Tower, River Thames and lots more. So after a busy day we went to bed at 21:00h in our new room, that's much better.

2009.09.27 - London Day 1

Tuesday the 27th of October 2009. Nicole and I went to London. I had to go to London to the Microsoft Dynamics Convergence 2009 at Novotel West London. We were flying with EasyJet from Schiphol to London Gatwick. Our flight had some delay and we landed at 09:00h at Gatwick. The Gatwick express took 30 minutes to London Victoria Station. After buying Nicole a Oyster Card for the metro we went to our Hotel Montana nearby Kings Cross St. Pancras Station. This area was familiar for me because I had worked there when I was at Atos Origin. The Hotel was TERRIBLE!!!, we had a tiny room with NO toilet BAH!!! but lucky we could change to a suite the next day. Nicole did work that day and I was attending the Convergence. I had 5 meetings with some partners and sponsors. At the end of the Convergence , it was a good day for business. More on the Convergence can be read on my CRM blog. Later that evening we went to Oxford Street for a fantastic dinner at a seafood restaurant and off to bed.
