Lucy and Nana were the lucky ones with the tickets, the rest of us spent the afternoon wandering the streets looking for interesting shops (Jo), museums (Keezee) and large statues (Caiti). A good afternoon was had by all despite a gross navigational error by Keezee, as he tried to find his way back to the London Palladium Theatre for the pickup. (Let's just say, we have now seen Goodge Street tube station from every direction).
Let's start at the very beginning (a very good place to start). Here's the girls all done up like Austrian Fräuleins, getting ready to go.
We love going into London for the day, getting a good seat on the train, reading the paper and then taking a photo of it all. These are a few of our favourite things.
Nana's probably not happy we've posted this pic, because she wasn't looking at the camera.... she was looking up at Big Ben, checking we weren't going to be late.
We bumped into our old mate, the bloke on the horse again.
A typical London shot... the cab, the Union Jack and the garbage truck.
We made it to the theatre with plenty of time to spare, and were delighted to find that Australia's second favourite son (after Jack 'Ruki' Baillieu), Simon Burke, was starring as The Captain.
We walked from Waterloo, but it would have been quicker to get a cab.
Keezee dragged the girls all through the British Museum, but they kept smiling regardless.
Caiti and her big statue. For the record, after this shot she decided to scream "Rooaarr" for the rest of the afternoon - brilliant!
