London (2)

Posted on Jul 05, 2009

London went by in a whirlwind, but it was very full.  We saw 4 plays in 3 days, which made Alex very happy.  Two were Shakesearean, one at the reconstructed Globe Theatre, and the other at the Royal National Theatre (Measure for Measure and Alls Well that Ends Well), a contemporary play (Dr. Koczack's Example) about the Warsaw Ghetto during the Holcaust, and a dance production at Sadler's Wells featuring a Flemish Moroccan choreographer and 17 Shaolin monks.  We also managed to see Westminster Abbey, Windsor Castle and any number of other sites.  Every day we promised we would take a break to rest, but somehow never got back to the hotel much before midnight.
