Yes.
That's right.
I just saw Les Miserables.
In London.
Yup. There was absolutely no faking in accents. They are naturally Buuurrrtish!!!!
To put short and bluntly, it was the most amazing thing I have ever sat through. "Sat through" seems so negative. More like, vividly experienced it. Les Miserables and Wicked are probably the best things to this day that I've ever seen on stage to this point. Those are the kinds of plays I just get teary eyed in. I particularly was teary eyed at the beginning, in the middle, and at the very end :) Okay, to be more specific, "On My Own" and "Bring Him Home" certainly pulled some of my heart strings. And "Empty Chairs at Empty Tables" . . . . and the finale . . . . and when Eponine dies . . . and "Stars." Okay. I really need to stop. Basically, it was amazing, and I wouldn't mind seeing it a second time.
Another notable thing I did today was shop at this little piece of heaven in the form of a department store called Primark. They have sooooo many cute hats and sooooo many cute flats all very reasonably priced. It was jam packed full of multi-racial tourists, all here to see the royal wedding. Although many people say that it is usually that full. I hope not, because it was quite crazy. Here are some pics of my purchases:
Yes. That is glitter at the toes. And you can't tell that much in this pic, but the shoes are a greenish bluish tint. Adorable, right?
This is a super thick, rubber watch that glows in the dark! It wasn't advertised. I figured it out on my own :) I have gone the past two days, literally having no clue what the time is. I usually rely on my phone, but since my phone doesn't work over seas, I am at a loss.
The sunglasses I brought broke on me. I guess I was dehydrated or something because I made the radical decision to buy chunky, pink sunglasses. These are all practical purchases mind you! Except for the shoes . . . that was an impulsive buy in its purest form.
I would have more awesome pics for you of the walk about I had today in the city, but I was stupid and left my memory card in my laptop before I left for the day :( I have learned my lesson.

Wow, those shoes are hot. :) Also, I approve of the sunglasses. Sorry to hear you forgot your memory card, though. Super jealous that you got to see Les Miserables IN London. I've only seen the production at my High School, and even that was enough to get me a bit weepy. Glad to hear you're having a good time!
ReplyDeleteLes Miserables! How cool is THAT! And then shopping on top of that! Sounds like you are having a successful trip already :)
