Helicopter in Weston Park

A luminous green helicopter landed in the middle of Weston Park today. :) My friends and I were having lunch in the park (just beside the Psychology Dept) and were just in time to catch the excitement.

2 policemen on bicycles cleared the grassy area where many people were having their lunch. The helicopter then hovered above the park creating swirls of wind that blew grass and flower petals around its landing perimeter. Then it slowed to a smooth landing.

We still have no idea what its purpose was for. There were some staff and patients from the nearby Children's hospital, who came to receive the helicopter. But whether some one was getting transported somewhere else or if the helicopter brought important cargo was not apparent. The people near the helicopter were evidently feeling the same as the on-lookers as they were taking photos of the not so common event :p

Too bad I did not have a camera with moi.
