Pancake Day!

As many of you know, today was Fat Tuesday. Some celebrate Mardis Gras. Some celebrate Carnaval. England celebrates Pancake Day! I went with my friends Ray and Thalia to the Annual Pancake Day Race right next to the House of Parliament, where members of parliament and members of the press came together to raise awareness for the organization Rehab UK. The schtick was that everybody had to relay, running in their business suits and chef hats around the park while flipping their pancakes at least three feet in the air. Here are the hilarious pics of the area, the race, and the yummy pancakes.

What time is it? Check out Big Ben!

Here are the participants warming up and posing for pics.

They're oh so close, but the press wins!

Can't forget the delicious pancakes, which are not at all like ours. They're more like crepes with toppings of lemon juice and sugar.

Mmmmm, pancakes.
