Boxing day in London and after a busy day of shopping, what a way to end the evening by watching one of the many theatre shows available. For this evening, we have selected Queen’s We Will Rock You!

Freddie Mercury At The Back

Don’t expect too much from the plot but if you like sing a longs, this is a good show. It tells the tale of a lad named Galileo during an age in the future whereby Music via instruments was banned and all that is available are electronically produced tracks controlled by a giant corporation headed by Killer Queen. Galileo had the gift of singing old tunes (a majority of Queen tracks) which made him a target. Join Galileo in his adventures combined with Queen’s greatest hits on one of the longest running shows in London’s West End. More information is available at their official website.

Christmas day in London and nowhere to go as most stores and attractions are shut. Well, thank god that one tourist attraction in the middle of London City that is open. It is Ripley’s Believe It Or Not Museum in Piccadilly. It is funny that I am visiting the one in London when there is one back home in Malaysia (One World Plaza in Genting Highlands if you are wondering where!!)

Here are some of the exhibits on display.

One quick fact I got from this is that Ripley’s has a love for oriental stuff that he had a Chinese girlfriend at one time! And a huge sum of the display are from the far east.

It was indeed a fun day but I would probably not return here again as I think it is quite expensive. There is currently a 2 for 1 promotion if you travel by train which is available at daysoutguide.co.uk. For more information about Ripley’s and ticket prices, please visit the official website.

Merry Christmas everyone!

Hyde Park is lighted up at night this year with a large Christmas Fair and Market.

The German Christmas market rivals the ones that I have blogged about in Berlin and also Hamburg. However, the prices are slightly more expensive but you could expect Gluhwein (Mulled Wine) and German Sausages. The fair also featured some rides that I have seem in Hamburg’s Dom. I wonder whether it was the same one that travelled all the way or could it just be another set?

It is a must visit for the festive season!

If you haven’t had a chance to visit, better hurry as it won’t last any longer as it ends on 3rd January! More information is available at their official website!
