The Lodon Aqaurium

We had a nice lay in which is very rare when you have a one year old and then we headed back onto the tube. We spotted the London aqaurium and decided to see what it was all about. Its right next to the London eye but Lee wouldnt go on that as he dos'nt like heights the big scardy cat :)

It was brilliant, thier was great big huge sharks and turtles and a crocodile and a big open tank with all sting rays in. My camera, which generaly is a big load of bob came through and took this amazing picture of a frog.

After that we headed up to Piccadily circus to find out where the theatre was as we were going to see Grease the musical that evening. We picked up the tickets to save time later and had coffee and lunch. Then a spot of shopping was had at Harrods were we saw Mohammed al fayed shaking hands with the new owner of Harrods as he had just sold it that day to Qatar Holdings for £1.5bn. We went to the toy department and bought Harvey a Harrods Paddington Bear it is very cute and has a little green jacket. Thought we better take him back a present.

After this we headed back to the hotel to get ready for the theatre. It started at 7.30pm so we got thier in plenty of time to have a quick drink in the bar. Grease was brilliant and the songs reminded me of when i was a kid and i insisted that i must watch grease the film at least once a week. |Much to the annoyance of everyone else in my family. Lee hated every minute of it as predicted and described the experiance as 'torture'.

I cant beleive what a vibrant, busy and amazing place Piccadily square is. It was teeming with people. We had some supper at TGI Fridays and headed back to the hotel. What a brilliant day ! Back home tommorrow to see my little boy who i have missed very, very, very much !

These are my findings of London:

1) Everyone goes Jogging in parks more than anywhere i have ever been before
2) Every other person is foriegn and is most likely to be French or American
3) If you travel on the tube you must carry a newspaper even if you dont read one.
4) You must run for the tube to catch it before it leaves even though another comes along in 5 nano seconds
5) stand on the right hand side... Everywhere.
6) Going to the toilet costs more than a penny with some public toilets costing 50p.
