Travel was smooth but slow as our plane was delaying into JFK so we were delayed about 40 minutes getting out. Once out it was a smooth flight with very little sleep for the adults but Caroline fell asleep about half an hour in and stayed asleep until we were about half an hour out from Heathrow so it was a blink of an eye to her.
We got to the hotel along with Billy Tucci. The driver took the slightly scenic route, which gave Caroline a lovely look at London.
We took naps of various length since Peter had been up 36 hours straight, had dinner, walked around a bit and then went back to the hotel to tuck in for the night. Peter and I went downstairs and met up with various people that we know and met a number of people including Jonathan Ross who introduced us to a bunch of other people. We had fun talking about all kinds of subjects. Peter and I then dropped by a convention function and again talked to people that we knew and met new people. So we went back to the room having met a whole bunch of new people.
We got up at a reasonable hour and processed to the convention. Peter spent the day signing autographs and talking to people. Caroline earned money drawing various characters. I had fun with the War Doctor puppet and did some crowd control at Peter’s table so that the other tables could let the customers get to them. It was a long day. Caroline got a little overwhelmed so I took her back to the room for a break. We had dinner with the always wonderful JK Woodward and made a bunch of new friends. Over all a very nice day with lots of people who walked away happy. I got to say thank you to people who helped us out last year in our time of need. The convention has been lovely to us.
I am grateful that the first day went so well.
