Sunday FEB 1st and monday feb 2nd

so today was just awesome in all. in the morning Brie and I went to celebrate the chinese new year in trafalgar square and china town area. on our way there it was lightly snowing for a little bit but nothing stuck. the whole city was just a festive place. after Lunch We came back home until it was time for the fireworks at 6. The chinese absolutely destroy at fireworks. they were in the middle of Leicester square and it was just glorious. then i dropped brie off at a comedy club she had to go to for a class. on my way back it started to snow a little harder. by teh time i got home it was snowing pretty hard. after 2-3 hours i looked outside and low and behold it was a winter wonderland. Brie burst into my room and 10:30 pm and dragged me outside to go on a walk with her in the snow because she's never really been in it. so we went down by the Thames river and walked to westminster bridge. it was nice and the snow just kept coming. when we got back we saw wayne and saby making a snowman, so of course we joined in along with a guy named derek who came out. this is where the fun really happened.

while we were making our snowman, about 6 neighborhood kids about our age ambushed us with snowballs. we werent gonna have any of that. so we fought back. we easily pushed them back. so we got back to our snowman. then they came back 300 style. that was it, it was on. we had an hour snowball fight. we pushed them all the way back to their territory and took some of their land. this was an all out battle. they tried sneaking behind us to get us surrounded but derek and i destroyed who ever dared try to get behind us. this was soo big, cars had to had to stop because they didnt want to get hit. and we needed the street for battle. so it was 6 on like...6ish..we had me wayne derek and brie plus amanda and 2 other girls. but the girls didnt do to much. in all we won. we shook hands wiht our neighbors at the end. it was a good night for everyone in London. people were all outside being merry with complete strangers.

the next day brie burst into my room telling me that we had a snowday. i was asleep and therefore thought i was dreaming. turns out 7 inches of snow had fallen. the city literally shut down. the buses had been stopped which hasnt happened since the blitz in WWII. all teh tube lines were shut down but one which had major delays. there were no snowplows. it was insane. brie and i just walked around the city to see everything like parliment and westminster abbey covered in snow. this was the most snow since 91. so this was a historic event.
