London's Parks, Museums and Zach Braff

Headed out on the tube to Regents Park for the morning, the weather was tad chilly. 



Gates to Regents Park.


Merman fountain


Tulips




Flower beds.


The London underground "the tube"


Most of the street names are affixed to buildings.




We visited the National British Museum



Egyptian owl


Egyptian hieroglyphics


Mummy case/mummy pose


Masses of Roman carvings, the detail and number of carvings was incredible


I bet the horseman won eventually, more horsepower...


 Vases, trinkets and statues


Statue bro?




The National British Museum building itself was epic.



Beers, wines and eats at the Brewmaster Pub.


Vino tinto, why not break into song...



Location of the Pub. Spot the Monopoly Street names.. Lisle street also makes an appearance 


Midday winos


Picked up  some tickets at Piccadilly Circus to see the west end stage show "All new people" starring Zach Braff at Duke of York's Theatre.  Stoked to hear that our seats had been upgraded from balcony to stalls 7 rows back from the front! 


Great stage act, the fireman was particularly funny.  Braff was good although it was clear the other actors/actresses where more experienced in stage show performance, being a bit more dramatic... caught the tube back to Chapham, had a yarn with a couple of aussie lads that had also gone to see the stage act.  One of them was trying to compare it to avatar haha, review fail.  I think he was referring to the "hype" around the stage act being similar, but really? why go there.
