It's a Jungle Out There
Wednesday, we spent the morning at the London Zoo. The weather stayed dry for us, and we had a really nice time wandering around and looking at the animals. I loved the butterfly hot house. They has a really fascinating selection of moths as well as butterflies, and an area that you could see the caterpillars crawling around. They also had a really nice tropical bird house, which had some free flying rooms so you could get a closer look at some of the smaller birds. We decided to skip Camden Market on our way home since we'd been walking around so much. There's always another day for shopping. Later that night G had a really nice surprise for me. He'd gotten tickets for Les Misérables, but hadn't told me what we were doing for the evening. The show was wonderful. The smaller Queens Theatre was a nice venue, and the sets were incredible. There was a nice mix of opera and traditional musical actors vocally, so the contrast of their voices really stood out and helped you hear both parts clearly. All in all a really lovely day.
