London – First day of work

Today was the first day to meet everyone in the UK office and actually get started on some of the things we hope to achieve for the week, and for the most part I’d say it went quite well. I met a few people I had previously only spoken to via email or phone, so that was good. There’s still a lot more people to meet however, so hopefully I’ll get a chance to do that this week.

In terms of London itself, we didn’t see much today. Another stop on the tube and a few pubs, but not much else. We went to a Japanese place for dinner which was pretty good. I’m definitely going to have to come back someday, because I’m not sure how much time I’ll have to explore on this trip.

I discovered a Starbucks on the way back to hotel tonight, so I’ll have to check that out this week. A little bit of home 🙂

  1. Hi Mack,

    Meant to say yesterday "Welcome to London"!

    I’m surprised its the first Starbucks you’ve come across in London. They’re almost as populous as the Golden Arches nowadays.

    Enjoy your trip.

  3. Glad t hear that you’re having a decent time, minus the rain. (It’s snowing like a mofo here though, and it’s not warm…high of -20 today I think.)

    I was wondering 2 things: Need a ride? and can you also pick up a collectors spoon of some kind for my mom? (I’ll pay you back when you get back)
