This morning was beautiful and sunny in London. Alvie and I first made a stop at the Olympia where the "Who Do You Think You Are? Live" conference will be held. Alvie thought it would be a good idea to check out where the APG booth would be and if things were all ready for us.
Security was good at the back entrance, and at first security did not wan to let us in, but in short order they must have figured we were innocent enough.
If they have as many people as they have in the past at this conference, it will be packed like sardines. There is not a lot of isle space between stands.
Everyone was working hard to get all the stands assembled. It is amazing to think that in less than 24 hours it would be ready for this huge event.
Alvie and I toured London (249 photos here) and then went to dinner at Pizza Express. On the way over, we met Dick Eastman and we all sat down for dinner.
Tomorrow will be an adventure.
