Exploring London: Day 5
Another great day for me and Sita, and two important events:
First, we went to the Kew Gardens. Dad, you would have loved it. The air can't get any fresher, the view can't get any prettier, it was amazing. Of course, for me, the weather today was really cold, but Sita tried to convince me this was a good spring weather. Anyway, we visited a couple of green houses, and that was warm enough, especially the tropical one :)
The best part was when I read this written on a sign in one of the green houses:
The year's at the spring,
And day's at the morn;
Morning's at seven;
The hill-side's dew-pearled;
The lark's on the wing;
The snail's on the thorn;
God's in his Heaven -
All's right with the world.
(Robert Browning)
Amen to that.. :)
Second, my first theatre experience in London, and certainly not my last, and I enjoyed it immensley (despite the fact that it had to rain on this particular day). Of course, the play itself is basically based on a set of stereotypical characters, and it was predictable at times, but I enjoyed it anyway and I think it is a must see. Miro, you must see it one day when you come. I especially liked it when Max says to Leo: "Don't listen to what you hear".. interesting.
A lot of plans still on our list, but we will wait to see what kind of weather we will have tomorrow.
