After a pleasant 2 night stay, we are feeling a bit more adjusted to time change. Hotel was a smaller one which we prefer, very quiet and right across the street from the British Museum. Apparently this is Europe's largest museum and we spent about an hour and a half there yesterday before getting "museumed out". Ancient civilizations is their bag and they only exhibit a small percentage of their massive collection. Lots of sculpture, artifacts and a fair number of mummies including this poor sod who expired roughly 5000 years ago.
Went to the upbeat musical Come From Away last night. Loads of fun and quite creative in telling the story of 38 planeloads of folks and the townspeople of Gander, Nfld coming together on 9/11.
Inventive use of minimal props to simulate a Tim Hortons, inside a jumbo jet, air control tower, community centre, etc. Great music and energy from the cast.
Back at the airport now waiting on flight to Cape Town (via Johannesburg).
