BPoT #184: [Friday-Sunday]
Nerdfighteria weekend.
A photo essay and list of the most awesome things one could do with other nerdfighters.
1. Sopio card game, courtesy of Alex Day's brain.
The perfect way to start any nerdfighter gathering.
2. The Princess Bride. A classic.
3. Strawberry Hill, from Looking for Alaska. We discovered Alaska has terrible taste in $4 wines, so we added strawberries.
4. Sleepover. Complete with cocoa and gossip.
5. Crumpets. An english breakfast to prepare us for what was to come.
6. The Harry Potter Exhibition.
The awesomeness was only slightly dampened by the inability to photograph the event because of the overpriced photo books for sale in "Diagon Alley."
7. Toys R Us.
Where an indoor ferris wheel isn't enough, so they also had a lifesize T-Rex from Jurassic park and a two-story Barbie house. And death eater lunch boxes with Draco Malfoy thermoses.
8. The M&Ms store. mmmm.
9. The Disney Store.
Where dreams comes true. Unless you want to buy something, in which you're out of luck unless you have a royal bank account. But still pretty to look at.
10. Forbidden Planet.
Dr. Who merch, real weekly comics, asian snacks, nerd patches for nerd messenger bags.
It's all there.
11. The Strand Bookstore.
Where a book lover can spend hours and never, ever be done.
12. Nintendo World.
Is there anywhere more nerdtastic? They have everything from a Gulf war era, half-burned gameboy to the 3DS Ocarina of Time (which is mind boggling). Awesome.
13. Sleepover and Cocoa, the sequel. Thrills! Spills! New mug!
