They turned the lights on about a minute after we got off the bus. :)

Les Mis! (29/11/10)

We got cheap tickets to Les Mis at the Queen's Theatre on Shaftesbury Ave.

Stonehenge & Winchester (27/11/10)




Can you spot the sheep?


Christmas market in Winchester!


Ice skating!


We tried the Glühwein (mulled wine)--the tradition Weihnachtmarkt drink...but it wasn't very good.
Should have gotten the spiced cranberry juice.


Carol singers!

Lights in the town!
