My weekend began on Friday evening with a get together at a friend's house. We didn't do anything in particular, just jammed to some great music- Beatles, Rolling Stones- which passed into a long night of being merry and having sing a longs. My friend Vincent is very good on the guitar, and friend Patricia is a wonderful singer. It was a very relaxing and fun night!
On Saturday night a group of friends and I went out to London to celebrate Halloween. I ended up dressing up as an peacock sort of bird, while most everyone else was something scary! It was hilarious painting the faces of the guys, and honestly none of us did a very good job, but it did the trick.
The train ride into London was really humorous because while you are in costumes, most other people are not. So sitting next to an old couple with fake blood all over you and smiling, may not get you a smile in return. We ventured off into the night to find a club that Patricia had heard of, but when we got there it was packed. We went in anyway since there was no cover just to check it out, but it was really stinky and sweaty so we left shortly after. Walking down the street on Halloween weekend in London is really a sight! There are people everywhere in some really creative costumes. The group of us ended up just popping in a bar/club that we came across. It was pretty fun, and we just danced the night away.
Anytime one goes into London for the night, the most annoying part is getting home. It takes forever and you are exhausted, so I was very excited to finally fall into bed and pass out.
"At first cock-crow the ghosts must go
Back to their quiet graves below."
And now off to Rome...
