Day 5 - London

decent sleep again…we appear to have avoided any jet lag, woohoo! We walked down to the infamous Leicester square and after a couple of misguided attempts to get theater tickets, ended up purchasing them from TKTS London (equivalent of Las Vegas’ Tix4tonight). Walked from there to the Museum of Natural History and while we are not ‘museum’ tourists, it was very impressive and had come highly recommended by Brae who was here last spring. Next on our list, and way across town, was the Sky Garden. Hopped on the Tube for the first time and headed over. Sky Garden is a 360° panoramic viewing platform at the top of a building they’ve nicknamed the “walkie talkie” for its shape. Took some pretty spectacular pics from up there and glad we did it towards the end of our trip cuz enabled us to identify the ground we had covered in the past 3 days. Sent a Happy Birthday message to mom from up there too. Headed back to the theater district near Piccadilly Circus for a quick dinner and maybe the highlight of our time in London, The Book of Mormon - what a spectacular show and Alyssa was right, kinda the perfect show for Paul and I…fabulous!!!Read more
