Day 2

Today was a great day in London:

First we started out on a bus tour. Now this normally would be too touristy for my family, but it ended up being a great deal. This bus would take us around town to all of the hot spots in London and we could get off for as long as we would like, and take pics, go into the point of interest, or do whatever. Then later on we could just catch the next one that came along, no charge, and it would just keep going to the next spot. So we got some really great photos and a real quick nice tour of London. This also included a boat tour, so we got to see London from another perspective too.

Next we went to the theater district and caught tickets to go see Lion King. AMAZING SHOW!!! Absolutely amazing! I loved the music, the acting, and the costumes were fantastic. I could go on and on about it. Oh and they served ice cream at intermission, why we don't do this in america i don't know!!!

Next we headed to this cute little bar to have some drinks before meeting Emme's friend Ann and her mother for dinner. We went to this neat little dive called, Gourmet Burger Kitchen (GBK), and my burger was this: No bun, bottom layer of grilled eggplant, next layer grilled sweet potato, next layer camberet cheese (like brie), next layer grilled red pepper, next layer grilled portobello mushroom. AMAZING! all over a bed of rocket (arugala here). Then we came home from our long day away, and are awaiting really scary weather!! Some really high winds and rain... eeeegads!!

Tomorrow we are off to the Tate Modern, maaaaybe the tower of london if the weather isn't too bad and the lines aren't too long. Then tomorrow night we might be going to see another show (maybe billy elliot). We're just kind of open w/ our plans, so i'll let you know how it went.

Cheerio!
