Everyday seems to keep getting better, during my London stay. The weather is holding well. Not very cold, and very little precipitation. I did a little shopping after breakfast this morning. I purchased a rare 3 inch CD of "R.E.M., and it is new. Something that is rare for me, to buy something that is still in new condition.
After the shopping I went back to Leicester Square to purchase another theater ticket for tonight. I am going to see the live show"Chicago" tonight. After I purchased the ticket I went to try some lunch in Chinatown. I tried a restaurant that Gary Flower recommended. The restaurant is called "Wong Kei" and is located on Wardour Street. The food was good. I had chicken and sweet corn soup, and the main course was Singapore noddles. The food was good and cheap, it only set me back £4.40.
Then I was off to see the Science museum. It is a very impressive place. Lots to see and do there. They also have a great section on aviation. I will go back to this museum again, if I can find the time and the energy.
In the aviation part of the museum. They of course had a Spitfire and a Hurricane. Both airplanes did see active service during World War 2. They also had a very impressive collection of aviation engines. Most of the fantastic museums they have here in London are free. This does help with budget travelers. That are trying hard to have a great time, during there vacation spent here. It is very easy to go through a fortune a day, if your aren't careful.
For dinner I prepared a nice steak dinner for myself at the hostel. I served fresh English salad for an appetizer. I served hot mixed vegetables with the steak. I have eaten very well during my holiday. I enjoy shopping at the near by Sainsbury's store. The quality and prices are very good.
The second live theater show in London was also very enjoyable. Chicago was a very sexy, lively musical. With lots of difficult and demanding dance routines, preformed well by the talented cast.
