London: Day 3
Posted by Bloggylife in entertainment, UK on December 22, 2009
Today “انا حاكرة”
The day started with lining up at the tube station to get a ticket. From the machine, I chose 1-day to Zone 1 and 2. I went straight to the Lyceum Theatre in hopes to find tickets for “The Lion King”.
As soon as I got out of Covent Garden station I asked someone for directions
To get to the theatre, out of the station turn to your right and then take the first left and then the first right and straight ahead. I booked a ticket YAY! I had 2 hours to kill, so I grabbed breakfast/lunch and then headed to the transport museum, which was sooo cool, there was a jubilee market, it reminded me of “souq al-mubarakeya” that we have, took a 5 minute spin in it, the museum was so interesting, my ticket cost 5 pounds because I showed my student card
It takes you back to the 1800 where all the transport system started, it is so informative.
The musical was amazing beyond words, the engineering behind it is awesome, the stage how it rotates and the colours, the actors, the singing, the music, the costumes, I LOVED absolutely every moment of it
I do recommended seeing it. There was an American mother and her son next to me and in the break we started talking and she told me that in Leicester Square you’ll find tickets half price but you have to by them on the same day. But since this show is so popular they don’t need to sell tickets half price but other shows which don’t have that much demand can be found at half price.
Since I had my full one day ticket, I decided to go see a movie
I went and booked “Law Abiding Citizen”. It is a nice movie, been a long time since I closed my eyes in anticipation of not knowing what’s going to happen, My GOD am I going soft
Yimkin the “Lion King” musical affect
After the movie ended passed by Sainsburys for some chips and chocolate and headed back to my hotel
