Today was the first full day in London. We had breakfast in the pub attached to the hotel then headed off to Westminster Abbey. I love the location of the hotel! It's in walking distance of Westminster, Big Ben, and Buckingham Palace.
Westminster has a good audio tour that allows you to walk around and explore on your own. We saw the resting places of all three if Henry VIII's children, Dickens, and others. Then we looked for the bus tour we pre ordered tickets to, "The Original Tour". The ticket guy found out I was from New York so he kept trying to do a NYC accent and random stereotypical NYC sayings which was pretty funny. We stayed on the tour until it got to the Tower of London. Once at the tower we stayed there for a good while.
On a whim we decided to try and see Wicked. There were seats available for the night and at much cheaper prices than Broadway. We had time to kill before the show but not enough to be able to sit done and eat so we went back to Victoria station to try to eat there. All they had was American stuff :/. We settled on a Mexican takeout. It was spicier than anything I ever had India!
The play was good, I enjoyed it.
