For the most part, I spend my time in two fabulous museums: the Tate Britain and the Tate Modern which were both incredible. I had to convince myself I really did enjoy looking at the random piles of cement blocks on display...it was a challenge (not quite sure I succeeded). I did love the Pre-Raphaelite and Turner pieces in the Tate Britain, however. Such talent!
Between the two museums, I had a meat pie (yes, even after watching Sweeney Todd) which was pretty good. I did think it was funny it was from an Australian place...didn't peg pies as Australian.
In the evening, I decided to go to Phantom of the Opera which turned out to be the best decision I could have made. It was incredible. There's a reason it's been playing for almost 25 years...happy sigh :) I really don't have words to describe how fantastic and enthralling an experience it was, but trust me. It was brilliant ;)
And with that, my time in London has come to a hold (until I return for a day before I fly home the end of July). I can't believe tomorrow I'm going to be in Vienna! Cheerio!
Phantom! How awesome!
