London 2012 Olympics: 1 year to go

I was in Trafalgar Square to see the party that the Mayor of London celebrates 1 year to go to London 2012 Olympics.

The crowd has just started when I arrived in this square. The ceremony isn't for another hour and a half, and people are already coming here. A lot of our work is about here the spaces are going to be where people can enjoy us.

Walking back through Trafalgar Square

Today, I went back to the Philippine Embassy in London to process my Lost Passport they says after 12 weeks I will claim my new passport. That was 3 months of waiting, I think we are the most longest passport processing in the world and that I wish I could put it in Guinnes World Book of records as well after the Filipino gets the smallest man in the world.

But anyways, I snapped some photos again as I'm walking back through the Trafalgar Square, I really love the place it is the vibrant heart of London and the best starting point for exploration of its central part – right in the neighbourhood there is the government district of Whitehall with the British Parliament and is also close to Buckingham Palace and Westminster Abbey and the newly built Countdown Clock for London Olympics. I get here by underground with lines Bakerloo or Northern, from the Charing Cross station.

The sun is shining, and London feels good. I'm watching some performers and souvenirs, I remember the Mall of Asia in Manila the statue was exactly the same. I sat for awhile and watching them perform and it was fun.

That's all for today, my life was too busy at present and I need to finished my tasks, so I think I couldn't have write some of a post here in my weblog but I will still try to find time to make this blog up and existing.

2012 Olympic countdown clock visit

I was in Trafalgar Square last week, I have chance to go around London because we have a longer day the sun sets at 9:30PM so I could visit the countdown clock London 2012 Olympic Games. It all looked like an advertisement for Omega, but as it turns out, not a very good one perhaps.

A 6.5m-high structure, which is in a prominent position in Trafalgar Square. The timepiece, which has become a traditional fixture for Olympic host cities and is made by sponsor Omega, stalled reading 437 days, 23 hours, 20 minutes and 7 seconds to go until the opening ceremony.

The launch of the Omega countdown clock is an important milestone for any Olympic Games and is something of a tradition within the Olympic movement. It will be a daily and hourly reminder to everyone who visits Trafalgar Square that the countdown to the start of London 2012 has well and truly begun and that the greatest show on earth is soon coming in the UK.
