Hello Everybody! I´m very late with the last dat of Download Festival!
The third day was very lazy, as I headed to the festival later than usual, as I waited for some new friends tat I met at the hotel.
We camped at the main stage and saw Rise Against, Volbeat and Korn, with some food and bathroom breaks of course! It was a lot of fun!
We went back early, missing Biffy Clyro, which I admit didn't interest me as much as the other two bands, KISS and Iron Maiden.
How was Download Festival?
It was interesting! It's been a long time since I went to a festival, and I did see a lot of new bands like Frank Carter and the Rattlesnakes, Ice Nine Kills, Bury Tomorrow, and Finally seeing Megadeth, and of course, KISS!
​
I did also see bands that I have seen before, like Skindred, Volbeat, and Iron Maiden! Which was also awesome! We will see what kind of bands that will be playing next year, to see if it's worth going back again!
Which leads to today, as today I have left Download festival and has headed down to London!
The day started quite early as I woke up naturally at around 7am, and chilled for a bit, until I called for a taxi to pick me up at 9.45am. The taxi was a bit late, and it arrived at 10am, and drove me to Loughborough station, so I could catch the 10.32 train to London!
I managed to get on that train and arrived in London at around 12pm, and headed to the hotel, the same as before, and the room wasn't ready!, So I could leave my bags and go out, I first headed to a park close to the hotel, and went to a church. After that I walked up to Camden town and had some lunch! From there, I went to see the Amy Winehouse Statue in Camden, since I was in the area!
A friend wanted to meet up before he went back home, but he was on a train to London, so I figured that I could manage to be in Portobello Market before meeting up, so I went there. But sadly we missed each other!
So after Portobello Market, I went to a store and bought some comics. Then I went to London eye and Big Ben, and heading back to Kings cross, where I bought some water, and had some dinner, before, checking in and getting the room, which was the same room as before!
Tomorrow I will be heading to Belgium, Brussels in perticular and will just spend the day there before going to Herentals, which is where I´m going to stay when I´m going to Graspop Metal Meeting! Which is going to be interesting, as Herentals is the next town over from the Graspop Area, and will take over 30min by car to get to. We will see how that goes!
