London is just a great city. Take the red bus. Get on and get off as many times as you want. Like New York, it's also a good walking city. Have fun.
Wicked is a great show and Idina is outstanding -- too bad Kristin Cheonwith didn't go over as well (Saw the original in NY).
We saw Woman in White which was average at best. We saw FAME which was fun, but not great. We went on a whim just for the hell of it.
Mama Mia was still HUGE there, but I had already seen it twice so we didn't go.
We happened to be there on VE Day and BBC-TV was doing a huge remote broadcast in Trafalger Square, so traffic was a mess.
On previous visits we walked all around at night -- through Picadilly Circus and along the embankment -- as I said, great walking city. We were walking from Trafalger to Buckingham Palace and a platoon of mounted calvary trotted down the street. St. James's Park is gorgeous.
Of course we went to Harrods -- but it's just another department store pretty much.
As part of the Red Bus tour we took a ride up the Thames from the Tower to Parliament. That was fun.
Damn, what a neat city.
