A Good London Day

I'm still savouring the orderliness of London -- it's a far cry from Cairo.

Today I had a very typical London day....I started in Leicester Square by getting some theatre tickets for a matinee, and I spent a couple of hours in Notting Hill and the Portobello Rd market.

Sadly, I could not get ticket for my first choice, Wicked, but I did manage to get an afternoon ticket for Guys and Dolls starring...are you ready for it? ....Don Johnson from Maimi Vice fame! Who knew he could sing (sort of) and dance (somewhat)? This really isn't one of my favourite musicals, but I really enjoyed it. I think I'm having some sort of theatre addiction here...there are so many choices!

It was a good London day, busy with people bustling here and there; and lots of tourists from all over. I didn't realize London would be so crowded in January.

I'm craving some good Vancouver sushi, and sleeping in my own bed...it will all be soon enough.

Take care....

Hey Barb,

I am assuming that you may very well be airborne or will be very soon. Wow ... the time flew by but I am sure it was even faster for you. So glad that you did the blog! It was entertaining and I really appreciated being able to keep tabs on you. Thanks for sharing the experiences and the journey. Can't wait to see you and talk with the real you!
