Wellington Arch: also known as Constitution Arch or
(originally) the Green Park Arch, is a triumphal arch located to the
south of Hyde Park and at the north western corner of Green Park (although it
is now isolated on a traffic island).

St Pauls – The cathedral is one of the most famous and most
recognisable sights of London, with its dome, framed by the spires of Wren's
City churches, dominating the skyline for 300 years. At 365 feet (111 m)
high, it was the tallest building in London from 1710 to 1962, and its dome is
also among the highest in the world. To reach the top we had to take 500
stairs, and thanks to his new bionic hips John was able to reach the top with
us.

Matilda the Musical - It is based on the novel by Roald Dahl. It
received its West End premiere on 24 November 2011 at the Cambridge Theatre. Matilda
has received widespread critical acclaim, fast becoming one of the most
successful British musicals in modern history. The show won seven Olivier
Awards including Best New Musical, at the 2012 ceremony - the most awards ever
won by a single show. It really was an amazing show for adults and children
alike.
Night time entertainment – the laser lights at the bar we went to
were amazing
