Day1
The Journey
Our train left Wigan at 10am but I wanted to get to the station for about half past 8 as we was getting the bus there and I wanted to equate for any traffic and I like being on time. We woke at about 7 and had breakfast at home before we got the bus into Wigan. Once at the station we went into the cafe and grabbed two hot chocolates while we waited for our train.
Our train arrived about five minutes late but then we was finally on our way down to London I was so excited about seeing the Lion King I couldn't wait.
The journey went pretty quickly although I was starving. I couldn't wait to get to Euston and have Harry Ramsdens before we went to check in at the hotel.
London
Once we arrived at Euston I had sausage and chips and Jonathan had a chicken burger and chips then it was time to go down to the underground so that we could get to the hotel and get rid of the bags that were really annoying us. We got on the Victoria line down to Oxford Circus before we got onto a circle line to take us to Queensway station so that we could walk up to the hotel from there. It took us about 20mins from Euston to the hotel not bad really especially as most of that was the waiting time.
We got to our hotel and got given our room on the ground floor very handy especially when you have been out all day and just want to crash exhausted from the walking although the circle and district lines ran right underneath us the noise was minimum. The room was small but really nicely decorated and for the price we paid we couldn't complain, impressed with the bathroom and its heated floors and the power shower that they had was brilliant. We got changed for the Lion King then so that we could go the History museum before hand. The Bayswater station was right opposite the hotel so we was right on the district and circle line which to us worked out great as most of the tourist sites are on this line.
We arrived at South Kensington station and went up and we was really impressed with the History Museum building Jonathan said he would of visited just for the architecture. We really liked the exhibits although not sure if I would of paid for it. Jonathan loved it however but I just thought there wasn't much history other than evolution and dinosaurs.
We left the history museum at about half past four so that we could make our way to find something to eat before the Lion King ended. We hoped on the tube to Enbankment and changed to the Northern Line so that we could get up to Charing Cross. We had a look round Trafalger Square and Nelsons column and we saw Frank Skinner.
We ended up eating McDonalds however oh well it was cheaper than a meal out which worked out well when it came to getting a drink before the show started. It took us about an hour to find the Lyceum theater, when we did get there we still had about half an hour before doors opened so went to the pub on the corner. Jonathan wasn't happy at the £9 bill for an archers and lemonade and a corona
we would stick to Wetherspoons for the rest of the trip when it came to a drink.
I absolutely loved the Lion Kings and our seats were really good I cried about three or four times. I thought that Rafiki, Mufasa and Scar were amazing and although most of the songs from the second half were not from the movie I think I preferred this half to the first.
When it finished we headed off back to Charing Cross and waited for the northern line train back down to Enbankment so that we could get the Circle line back to the hotel I was completely knackered it had been a really long day and I knew that we had an early start Saturday.
So excited about this one been waiting to see it since it first started.
