So this is the strange and assorted collection of photos from my trip to London! Most notable are the pictures from the trip lazy_daze and I took to the Harry Potter studio, which come after some random snaps of pianos, V&A Costume fun, and Globe idolatry. :D :D The link to the non-slideshow page of pictures are here.

I AM RETURNED.

Ok, technically, I've been back since Tuesday evening, but as I was back at work Wednesday morning while fighting off jetlag and trying desperately to catch up on sleep, I've been a little lax in reconnecting with normal life.

The Battersea Arts Center retweeted this photo of the crowds of Londoners ready to start cleaning up their streets this morning on Twitter.
