Matilda the Musical

Matilda the Musical was great! Man oh man were we tired though. We slept through the interval. I have no idea how long it was. We had 25 pound seats. We originally bought Chicago tickets but then walked to the Matilda theatre and they had two tickets for the night, so we went and returned out Chicago tickets and bought the Matilda ones. We had seats in the very back row RIGHT up the top. We were practically looking directly down on them. It was pretty tricky to see, but we got most of it.
The purple is the stage.

We went on the Big Bus, which is one of the tour companies that take you around in a bus. We didn't get far before we bought tickets for Matilda. And went to M&M world. And had a look around. Today we'll go and do the bus the whole way round, properly.

Tomorrow we're off to the Czech Republic, where we'll stay for 3 nights and then move on to somewhere else. It's all a bit crammed in because we only have 2 weeks before Tegan gets here (less then 2 weeks actually). We'll prioritise. And we'll have internet in our next destination, which will make things much easier - going to McDonalds every time you need to do something is annoying. BUT very handy - without it, we'd have no internet! Okay, we could pay 15pounds PER DAY for internet access in our room - but geez, who wants to do that???

It's overcast today, not so nice. But we're doing the Big Bus look around town thing again, the whole way round (not on the open top today I'd say, it's rainy outside!). We'll go up on a rivercruise. And go to Harrods when we get back mid-January.

Happy anniversary mum and dad!! xoxoxox
