Trafalger Square

Today we went to London.   Before children, we would have gone to museums, the theatre and restaurants.  Today we went to Pret a Manger's new fast food place - Itzu (Asian inspired food - Clare loves, loves, loves sushi), went to the the children's activities at the National Gallery, and saw a live play of What the Ladybird Heard.

But to get there, we went through Trafalger Square.  And among the interesting bits of this famous place, are the pedestrian traffic lights.  The "don't cross" red man is the same...but instead of the familiar green figure letting us know when to cross, we saw this:


Apparently, a year ago, they changed all the crossing lights for Gay Pride!  We didn't get photos of all the lights (too dangerous!!) but here is what was there - 

We saw fun buskers, dancers, musicians and....bubbles.


After arriving just in time for the play at the wrong theatre - we literally jogged to the correct one and made it just in time to see a very fun live play of a beloved children's story.


 Hit Whole Foods, and caught the train back "home".  Exhausted and happy with our day in London.
