October 15, 2013 (Evening)

After Buckingham Palace we found a wonderful little pub for lunch.  The boys decided to head for the Tower of London, and I chose to return to the flat for a little rest. It is very hard to surprise Max, but we had one more little one for him.  Over the summer his Honor Society Class read "And Then There Were None" by Agatha Christie and he was hooked.  We managed to get tickets to "The Mousetrap" and did our best to keep it a secret.  We told him we had reservations at a famous London restaurant and he was literally flabbergasted when we arrived at the theatre. It was such a thrill!

St. Martin's Theatre is so small and so totally charming. John and I had seen the play about ten years ago, but this production was superb.  It has been running for 61 years and still draws the crowds.  Couldn't have asked for a better evening.
