This series of videos shows our journey from Embankment station, and our walk towards the London Eye.
As expected, it was a pleasant enough experience, given the mass of people.
Expect to see (not necessarily in this order):
A decent view of the countdown and fireworks that ushered in 2009
Singing of, Auld Lang Syne
A guy crowd surfing!!!
A cute little girl on someone's shoulders in the foreground to the London Eye and projection on the Shell building.
A video message from various people being projected on the Shell building.
Lots of singing and dancing in the street.
This year was a bit different. A bunch of mates went towards the London Eye to watch the firework display with anticipation and welcome in the New Year.
I have to take my hat off to the police, london transport and all other organisers who really did a great job with the crowds. Thankfully, it made up for the shite fireworks display - which to be fair, was expected. It has been a diabolical financial year for us all in the UK. Im grateful there even was fireworks!
I wouldnt have been that surprised if the whole thing was cancelled.
Anyways, im glad I did this again, it's been far too long since I last spent NYE on the Embankment.
Happy New Year for 2009 !
