High School Musical 2

September 2nd--After finishing up home school, we headed out the door to pick up our Chinese visas. By the time we had our visas in hand, it was lunch time. The kids really wanted McDonald's, so the golden arches it was. We were actually fine with something quick today because we were running out of time before our 2:00 show of High School Musical 2: Live on Stage. We ate quickly and then took the subway to Leceister Square. It was at this square we were looking for the TKTS booth to get 1/2 price tickets on future musicals. Unfortunately, we were having a hard time locating it and it was starting to rain. We canned the whole idea and got back on the subway heading toward the Wimbledon stop. It took us over 30 minutes to get to our stop, but arrived around 1:30 with plenty of time to walk to the New Wimbledon Theater. We entered the theater, got our tickets, found our seats, went to the bathroom and got popcorn all before the show started. The kids (and adults) loved the show. It was a really good production of it and I loved some of the stage props. The scene where Sharpay sings Fabulous at the pool was a great scene with a pool made out of the stage. It was very creative! The show was over about 4:30 and it was still raining. So, it turned out to be a really good day to be inside watching a show. We took a 10 minute train back to Clapham Junction and then a 5 minute bus to our apartment. So, we made it back right at dinner time. I cooked us all a "gourmet" dinner that was enjoyed by all. Actually it was just chicken and tortellini, but at this point, anything cooked is considered gourmet!
