Today was the Big Bird Day on eBird so I popped over the the park and took a few pictures. I came back for breakfast and tea with my Sweet Pea. Then I submitted my bird checklist to eBird. We put on some fancy clothes and walked to our matinee at the Prince Edward Theater. We booked "MJ" the Michel Jackson musical about his preparation for the Dangerous Tour. There were three different Michaels, one at age 11, one in his early 20s and then the iconic white glove Michael. Lots of great tunes and some incredible dancing made for a wonderful time. We had a bit of an issue with loud talkers but the finally settled down. I had been carrying my Japan Center reward card for over an year now and we went there to get some sushi. With our next visit we will finally have enough stamps to get a free hot entree! We got two slabs of fish, two containers of fish roe and a box of sushi. We headed home and had a fine dinner. The walk was fun as many folks were out and about. One eye needed to be on the navigation app as London's streets are the furthest from a grid pattern as can be.
On the way to the park
Very elaborate gates
The lion and the unicorn
Open for business
I passed through the rose barden
Many smaller birds were flitting about
Some of the hardier roses were still in bloom
Time to battle!
Swords, arrows, oh my!
The cutest long tailed tit
It liked the roses too
Daisies
Flowers are the most amazing things ever
An Egyptian goose flying by a stretching person
A thank you boulder from the Norwegians for WW2 help from Britan
Deep in the park a house
Lurking in the tall grass
Spiky chestnuts
A big running group
Back in Mayfair
Love this little car
Figaro and my shadow
Many millions of dollars worth of cars line these streets
Mickey Mouse meets Einstein?
Close the road, the beer bike is coming
Love the grand style of the buildings
Even the gates are elaborate
SOHO, work this street often?
Flying peppers!
Brickwork hall of fame
Tasty bits in the windows are so tempting
We will be back here for Jazz later in the week
This street does not know what it wants to be. Old half timbered pub house and candy colored buildings
At the theater
We are inside
It is old school grand
A sky light?
Very nice
The programs were available but only to purchase
The sheer curtain allowed the audience to watch something while the show was getting set up
Milling around mostly
A thriller of a show
Our walk to the Japan Center took us through Chinatown
So many lanterns
They must have been on sale
It was crowded
A Chinese Pikachu
The gate into China Town
You know you have arrived when the crispy ducks are in the window
Sun is setting and lighting up the crowd
Japan Cerner here we come!
Bee line home with the sushi
Big blockages in the circus
Piccadilly any dilly
Nice accents on t he building
The very elaborate
Royal Academy of Art
Gilded age
Nice art is
Nearly everywhere
Arghh!
Almost home
The clouds are getting lit up
Lucifers Car "L666 XOX"
Time to tuck into dinner
