On the second day in London I was having a lot of trouble with what day of the week it was. I drew out a calender of May and decided it was Wednesday that morning. Of course I had the same problem the Monday we left in Atlanta when I parked at a GT meter thinking it was Sunday and they wouldn't ticket me. I got my first GT parking ticket that day and paid it 20 minutes later (it wasnt even showing up in their system by then).
In the morning we got up early to go to the half price tkts booth and bought tickets to see "We Will Rock You" for us and Amanda. We were in the sixth row! Then we met up with Amanda and Feddi at 11. We walked with them to the Cabinet War Rooms (hidden underground in the middle of the city) where they continued on.
Next we went to the House of Parliment and saw them in action. I found it pretty dull as they(7 of them) were talking about immigration policy and Tony Blair was not present.
We met back up with Amanda for a pub dinner at Garrick Arms with fish and chips. Feddi left for Luton airport ot have an interview at a university in France except he was 10 minutes late to his easyJet flight and didn't get to go. At dinner Amanda had a local ale that did not taste like much. I had a cider called Magners that was really good. I don't know if you can get in the US but I will look. Jillian if you read this you must go try it. Its better than Strongbow in my opinion. The waiter was Spanish and very talkative.
The show was fun too. All of the music was Queen of course and the plot was predictable with the evil queen and computer made music. Galileo finds one of Queens guitars hidden on earth and brings back music.
It was about 11 pm by then and we went back to the hostel to sleep.
