Day 2 - "Life is Balloons"

On day two of our journey Natsuki decided to walk through St James' Park in front of Buckingham Palace holding helium balloons.

I wasn't sure why he wanted to do this, and when I asked what his intentions were, he replied, "Life is Balloons".

I'd be lying if I knew what that meant, but I'd like to think it's a representation of the childhood innocence that lies within us all.

Then again, perhaps I'm just desperately trying to clutch at some sort of meaning, at the ridiculous randomness of it all.

Unfortunately, the people of London didn't share Natsuki's enthusiasm for balloons, although a few people stopped along the way to wish him well. 

We bumped into several fans on the way around London, particularly in Camden and Leicester Square, where an awesome viewer joined us and showed Natsuki a pub with decent craft beer and who gave us a tour around Camden.

On top of all this we also filmed a full English breakfast (which went down very well), and a Japanese meal at Wagamamas (which didn't go down so well).

We're going into London one last time today, before tomorrow's journey out into the countryside, Stonehenge and beyond.

So far so good!

Life is balloons. Ah, yes... I will keep this in mind as I start my day. Natsuki has such wonderfully wise yet strange ways of philosophy lol Makes me happy! πŸ˜ƒπŸŽˆ

This souns very well Chris! You will have loads of materials for your channel and it will make it feel even more diversified :D

Don't forget to show Natsuki the song Stonehenge by Spinal Tap.

I feel like Natsuki is so enlightened but he can only give us hints to the meaning of life and we have to piece it all together. Anyhow if you do manage to get up to Scotland (specifically Edinburgh) I'll happily show you all around!

Love these little snippets into how your trip is going. Is there any intention to possibly do a fan meet whilst you are in the UK or saving it for another time?

Enjoying these diary entries - they're like little snapshots of insanity.
