I am heading out for a busy weekend in London, featuring a night of Antakshari, visits to Hyde Park and Trafalgar Square, a performance of The Phantom of the Opera, Madame Tussauds, and the London Planetarium.
I saw The Phantom of the Opera at Her Majesty's Theatre in London. Despite cramped balcony seating, I was mesmerized by the live music and technical stagecraft, including the smoke-filled lake and massive, mobile set pieces.
I’ve stopped providing regular updates for my London travel series due to time constraints. This post serves as the final entry for the collection, concluding my digital record of the London 2000 trip.
I'm preparing for my upcoming European tour by researching rail travel via Backpack Traveller and bus routes with Eurolines. I also found a guide for sightseeing in London to help plan my first stops.
I visited the Tower of London for a Yeoman Guard tour and explored the British Museum, which is vast and free. I also clarified the common confusion between Tower Bridge and London Bridge while window shopping on Oxford Street.
I’ve registered for the upcoming London Geek Dinner on July 11th. These gatherings serve as informal networking events for the local technology community, focusing on collaborative exchange and marketing topics within the London tech scene.
