This eye-in-the-sky camera was connected with wires to four light poles on the top of the stadium, so it could go anywhere! The wires made it look a bit like a spider. Also, I swear it almost hit one of the players in the head...

At the innings break, out comes what I dubbed the "cricket Zamboni"! It has two steamrollers on it for double awesomeness!

India celebrates a catch! I like how everyone comes over to participate - they have time because a new batsman has to come out.

During an instant replay, the fields mill around and the screen says "Decision Pending" and makes heartbeat sounds. It's intense!
I was also included :-) Later that morning I got yellow'd and purple'd.

On the way back, I spent a day in London. First stop - these cool pods at Heathrow Airport! At the console on the left you select your destination, then the doors open and you get inside...

The inside of the pod. There are small benches on both sides, and buttons for starting and opening/closing the doors.

The pod drives along a narrow lane (no rails!), and here you can see another pod going the other way.

The pod is arriving at the station. I'm not sure what the pods on the right are - maybe they're charging or something?

London has some pretty nice recycling bins out on the street.

Next I went to the London Eye! It is tall.

The people in my capsule. It was a little crowded but not too bad.

Me on the London Eye with the Millennium Bridge in the background. (why didn't I take a selfie when the capsule was higher? Oh well...)
