Arrival

Well, we have arrived here in London, Dulwich in fact. In Chicago, we were delayed for about 2 1/2 hours while we waited for the log book, de-ice, ect... when we finally were airborne however, I noticed that the piolit changed our path slightly which resulted in arriving a little sooner, making up for a little of the delay. our drive from heathrow was exciting as we got views of London at 2am. we also drove through Kensington, our old stomping grounds. This morning we woke up and headed out to town where we promptly went to the half price ticket booth where we got tickets for Avenue Q tonight. There are many shows here that we all want to see: Phantom, Les Mis, Wicked, and Billy Elliot to name a few. we are also looking forward to seeing Cat on a Hot Tin Roof (despite the fact that we saw it last time we were here) because it features James Earl Jones (Darth Vader) and Phylicia Rashad (Ms. Huxtable). From the ticket booth, we found ourselfs by the National Portriat gallery, where we found an exhibit titled: The Beatles to Bowie- the 60's exposed. It had some amazing pictures unfortunally, i was unable to use my camera, so you'll have to take my word on that. so for now, dinner then off to the theatre!
