London Day 2
I am happy to report that I got my computer working shortly
after I sent yesterday’s email from an Internet Cafe. So you don’t
have to send email to my yahoo address unless something happens
again!
We had a great day today. The weather was wonderful and we
had a good time seeing the sights. After a “full English breakfast”
at the hotel we went shopping for a few things that we needed and
then went to the half price TKTS booth at Leicester Square. We
bought tickets to see the musical Chicago. We had lunch at Covent
Garden, made sure we knew where the theater for Chicago was
located, and then started looking for a restaurant we remembered
from 8 years ago when we were here. We never found it so we
settled on a restaurant called the “Porterhouse” (for the steak
we assume). Then I tried to download some pictures we had taken
and I realized that I had the wrong download cable. Luckily the
electronic store heaven of London is only 2 blocks away. So I
found the cable in the second store I tried. By then it was time
to go to dinner and the Theater.
Because the Underground (subway) is nearly ubiquitous in the
areas we want to go, we didn’t rent a car and are getting around
by a combination of Underground and walking.
We enjoyed the production of
Chicago. The actors and actresses were great and the dancing
marvelous. The energy level on stage was very high.
We are pretty much caught up on our sleep and feel our energy
level coming back too. I am enclosing a picture of a London
bus to prove that we are here! More tomorrow!
