Day 325 - November 21st

Today a friend and I travelled to London to see Moulin Rouge the Musical at The Piccadilly.


The show was excellent and we thoroughly enjoyed it.




The Christmas lights in and around Piccadilly Circle were lovely. 


To celebrate their Platform 9¾, the Christmas tree at Kings Cross Station was Harry Potter themed, decorated with baubles, envelopes and other Harry Potter themed ornaments.


At St Pancras Station a huge 12 metre tall tree is made of books. In partnership with Hatchards, the UKs oldest bookshop, the tree features a winding staircase, wrapping around book shelves holding almost 4,000 books which have all been hand painted and inscribed with Christmassy titles. At the base of the tree are eight cosy cubby holes where you can sit and have a rest whilst listening to 5-minute excerpts of an audiobook. Sadly we were in a hurry to catch our train home so didn't have time to stop and look at it in detail but I managed to snap a quick photo as we passed by.
