For the past two days I've bought day travelcards that work on the Underground and on the busses. They cost 6.80 pounds, but they're a better idea than using the pay-as-you-go pass I have for normal days, especially if you go a lot of places. So today I tried to get my money's worth.
Kyle, Nathan and I started out at Victoria station, where we bought discount tickets for "Wicked" tonight. With a student ID card the day of, they were 25pounds instead of 50. I thought it was a good deal, and it ended up being really worth it; Wicked was amaaaaazing. I absolutely loved it.
Anyway, after we got tickets I went by myself to Camden, a shopping district known for weird stuff. There are a lot of vintage shops and places to buy really weird goth clothes. Strangely, it was all still retardedly expensive. So that was kind of a letdown. I tried to take a bus there but ended up getting on the wrong one, so I ended up taking a subway. Good thing I got that pass! By the time I got there it was pouring down rain, and most of the market is outside, so I didn't have the greatest time.
So I decided to go to Kensington High Street, which used to be the very best place to go shopping in London. Now that title belongs to Oxford Street, but Kensington is still a really nice place to go. Somehow while I was in the subway trying to get to Kensington it got warm and sunny, so shopping at the two places was even more opposite. I bought a shirt for a pound. Awesome.
Then we went to see Wicked, which was amaaaaazing. It's playing in Chicago and New York, too; I would recommend it to anyone. It was fantastic.
Good thing I bought that card!
Cheers!
