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

Sounds like an enjoyable trip!
I didn’t make the most use of my stay in London, and didn’t manage to go to the Lion King play!
My nephew went to it maybe 2 months ago and he still runs around singing the songs, which goes to show that the play should come with a warning.
And I sure hope you don’t develop the same symptoms as my nephew!

Yeah I should.
Sadly, my wife HATES (with a capital HATES) London! Makes it difficult to plan a trip to London.
BTW, you should watch Les Miserables. Great story and a wonderful production!

ahhhh why does she hate it! Akeed she is not going to the right places. You can spend the whole day from parks to museums to plays to restaurants to movies .. endless choices …
YUP I’ve got the whole list of all the shows
Sadly I don’t have the time nor the money to attend them all 
one at a time, they do run for a long time I think.
