Soho
Jaynann and I set out for our walk to Soho not expecting much to happen. But as soon as we started walking around Soho and going through the theatre district we both could sense that something was going on, we just couldn't put our finger on it. As Jaynann said, "There is something afoot in London town today." We heard and saw multiple helicopters circling the area, and we saw the police everywhere. Something was definitely going on. It didn't take us long to spot the first protestors and their little signs. Eventually the few stragglers turned into massive crowds (which is where Jaynann and I took our picture). The people were protesting multiple things. In fact, after asking a police officer what they were protesting, I still have no idea what they were protesting. "Anything and everything" according to that officer.
The highlight of the walk was when we were walking down the street and I glanced up and saw 3 men on the roof of this building. They weren't normal men. These men were dressed all in black, with ski masks and binoculars. If you ask me, they were definitely snipers. Something fishy was going on. I was going to have Jaynann take a picture, but I didn't want her to get shot.
Anyway, long story short... the walk was good... the protest was crazy... and we got through alive!
