Wicked in London

I saw Wicked in London last year...at Her Majesties Theater. It was awesome. Wicked, the theater, the whole experience. I love the theater. I love the quiet before the production begins and the smell of the theater. I have since I was little. Anyways...Wicked was all that and more. If you love the Wizard of Oz...and you want to see a good play...go see Wicked. You won't regret it!

The trip has wound down and we are getting ready to head back across the pond to America. I am excited about going home and sad too. I will miss the UK. I love this place. We have seen Wicked....it was awesome...if you get a chance to see it stateside...GO!. We have pretty much walked all over London. I have sat in the vault and seen famous singers guitars. I went to Hard Rock and got a pin. I have walked til my feet don't feel like they belong to me any more. Our first night in London, we ate Curried chicken...and I was just not up to inhaling it and getting to the play. It did not sit well I can assure you. Our last night was Fish and Chips. I am a Capt. D's kind of girl...so was excited about fish and chips. Was hoping to get some bangers and mash....but alas....maybe next time. London has it all. I hope if you all ever get a chance you will hop on a plane and go and experience London....it is a trip of a lifetime. Happy Traveling!

We left Wales on the 19th and headed toward London. The scenery was awesome. Our first stop for the day was at Anne Hathaways house just outside of Stratford. It was a typical English cottage and the gardens were beginning to bloom making it that much more gorgeous. From here we moved on to Stratford-On-Avon and the birthplace of William Shakespeare, the Bard himself. It was very interesting to hang out where Shakespeare played as a child. In our time here we toured his burial place, his birthplace and scarfed down a Subway for lunch. I am loving some English mustard. It is a cross between Grey Poupon and Cheap Yellow Mustard. We loaded the bus and then headed for Oxford. We spent a couple of hours touring the grounds, a quick bathroom stop, and on to London. We ate dinner at the hotel-Indian cuisine (curry - yuck), and headed off via subway to see Wicked. We were a tad bit late...so we had to wait to enter the theater. It was worth the wait though...the play was awesome.
