St. James Park and the Lyric Theatre

A couple weeks ago we took a walk in St. James Park and then went to the theatre. Here's brad at the beginning of our walk. Notice Big Ben and the chairs on the lawn. You can rent chairs by the hour and on sunny days they are hard to come by.


It took us a good 5 minutes to find someone to take this picture for us. Even in a park, many Londoners seem to be rushing! In my hand is my favorite new snack... yougurt mixed with a crunched up Nature Valley Granola Bar.
We loved the colors in this tree... actually I did and Brad made fun of me for wanting a picture in front of it... Thank goodness I'm strong headed or we'd have about 2 pictures from this whole experience! As our walk progressed we found ourselves outside the royal stables. This is the beautiful wall that guards the Queens horses. Eventually we made our way to a tube station and ended our trek.
We regrouped at home... meaning we put on a couple more layers... and then headed out to the Lyric Theatre. We saw a hilarious play called Spyski. The tickets were cheap, the seats good, and the company great so, all in all, it was a pretty succesful evening! Good job Team Osborne... we're not winning yet but we're starting to score some pints against Big-Bad-London!
