Last weekend I flew to England for my very first Supernatural convention! I had initially planned to only go to the SaturdayNightSpecial (SNS) concert, but then figured I might as well get a preferred seat for Sunday to have another chance to meet up with fellow fangirls. (That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it!)
Admittedly I was a little disappointed when the con schedule turned out to be different from the USA set up and there wasn't going to be a J2 panel on Sunday. So when I arrived early enough for their Saturday panel, I decided to try and get a ticket for that as well.
Instead of going to the hotel to get rid of my backpack and cool down, I walked (and walked and walked) straight to the convention center. I still don't know exactly how it happened; I was absolutely ready to pay cash after asking for directions to the nearest working ATM when to my surprise I was given a free wristband with General Admission! I was still in a bit of a daze over that when I walked into the hall to find a seat. Turns out I was even on time for Misha's solo panel that was scheduled before J2!
This journal post does not contain any spectacular photos; I was in the back of the hall and have only taken a few snapshots to remember the view. This is a merely a report of my travels, I don't have any photo-op or autograph stories. It does include my trip to Cadbury World on Monday:)
For spectacular con photos I recommend you check out the twitters of
somer (SomerInTheWind) and
whiskygalore (Whiskygalore12).
If you want more, there are also glorious videos shot by
amberdreams (on YouTube) and I made a playlist of other vidders here.
( Now, here's my con experience. )
And now: PICSPAAAAAAAAAM!
( Saturday, May 5: M and J2 panel plus SNS )
( Sunday, May 6: R2 and J2M panel )
( Monday, May 7: Chocolate Cadbury World )
The End.

P.S. Mom and I sampled all the chocolate from Cadbury World and it was delicious:)
