Friday, October 21, a month after our anniversary and we finally celebrated it. We checked out of our hotel and had them hold our luggage since we couldn’t check into our apartment until 2:30. We walked to the apartment to check out the location, then walked to the Museum of Natural History. They hadn’t been open long and the place was swarming with kids. Really noisy kids. Why weren’t they in school? It’s Half Term? School break? Next week too? We will have to keep that in mind when choosing what to do. We stayed at the museum for awhile, but when we couldn’t take it anymore we left and walked a block to the Victoria and Albert Museum. Ah…so quiet. And so much to see. We will definitely need to return.

We stayed until we had to go back to our hotel to pick up the luggage and took it to the apartment. We then went to the store for supplies and unpacked. It was time to change for dinner. I had found a restaurant very close to the theatre where we would be finishing the evening and they had a special pre-theatre menu. Perfect. We had reservations and we enjoyed our 3 course dinners that included Prosecco. We ordered the same things except different desserts. Jim ordered beer and I got his Prosecco and mine.

Now for the highlight of our anniversary celebration, we went to the Victoria Palace Theatre to see Hamilton. We had excellent seats and the play was phenomenal!

It was a truly memorable day and even though it was a month delayed and not what we had originally planned it was very special.
