Making the most of the last day

Suddenly realizing this would be our last day in Great Britain we were hell bent on jamming it with the last items on our vacation bucket list.  Stressful,  knowing that we may not be able to fit it all in.  Up early and off to the half price theatre ticket booth (by the way, there was nothing really half price)  to find a show for the last night.  Settled on a classic, non sensical British comedy called Jeeves and Wooster.  More on that coming.  Then to breakfast near by and jockeying the bus schedule to get us back to Buckingham Palace for a palace tour.   The Queen is on vacation in Scotland in August and September and they open up the joint to thousands of tourists to stomp through her house for 60 days.  I'm sure a quick visit from Abby Carpet Cleaners and scraping off some stray gum balls from the picture frames and she'll never know the difference on her return home.

A quick visit to the awesome Westminster Cathedral, a lighting of a votive candle and a few minutes of Saturday mass and we were once again off by bus to the retail shopping district where Ben was on the prowl for some English fashion before we moved on.  Score.  Got a cool jacket.  Roamed Harrods five floors of high end goodies and dashed back to the hotel to get ready to head to the West End Theatre district.  Another of the awesomely cool small old theatres and a play that had only three actors.  At first I was concerned since our last play, Wicked was such an extravagant event, that a simple play with three actors might be a let down.  It wasn't.  A hilarious spoof centered on a story line that involved the "pinching" (stealing) of a silver cow creamer. Two of the actors played mulitple roles as the story unfolds.  It involved family, romance, blackmail, and deception.   All laugh-out-loud funny. British comedy at its finest.  

The final full day in London comes to a close, with chocolate crunch McFlurries in the room.
