Saturday night do do doooooooo do doooooooo do do do

Before we get to Saturday, on Friday night we legged it across part of London. Once we'd gotten back from the Thames Barrier, we headed to Leicester Square to enquire about theatre tickets. Deciding that we needed to go back the next morning for those, we walked over to Covent Garden for a look-see, and then wandered around in the general direction of this Indian restaurant that Mum and Dad went to 7 years ago. Given the average lifespan of a restaurant, I was dubious at best about our ability to find it, but lo and behold, it was there.

Our first stop on Saturday morning was the all-important theatre tickets, which we scored for more of a bargain price than we'd originally thought. From there we went over to Westminster, and took a little ride on the London Eye. It was the first time that I'd done it, as the 6 or so times I'd planned on doing it before had not happened due to bad weather. I thought it was great! It was a fantastic way to see London, in a completely different way from all that I had seen before. We could see all of the House of Parliament, 10 Downing St, Post Office (now BT) Tower, the Gherkin and all the way out to Wembley. I'm looking forward to going back for another trip, but at night.
