Coming out of the holidays, we had a major bite of the ‘London Culture Bug’! There were so many fun family shows going on in the city . . . and feeling like we had gone through a drought since ‘Kids’ Week in the West End’ during the summer . . . we jumped on a few performances in January!
Honest Burger
A Friday night show just screams dinner beforehand. We met Chris after work at Honest Burger. We had never been there before, but rank it right up there as one of the best burger places in London. The atmosphere was really fun!
London’s A Cappella Festival
The ‘show’ was actually the A Cappella Festival. The older kids really enjoyed watching the movie ‘Pitch Perfect’ so we thought this was a great way to show them the “real” thing. It just so happens that the main group for the night was called “The Real Group”. They were an amazing A Cappella group from Sweden. We all loved it. We knew it was going to be a great night when the opening group was amazing in their own right, as well.
Royal Albert Hall
Our second outing for the month enabled us to actually go inside the Royal Albert Hall, a building we pass on a weekly basis. We were there to see Cirque du Soleil. We weren’t really sure what to expect from this show . . . let’s just say we loved the acrobatics. The rest of the show was a little out of our league.
But, no matter what, we loved experiencing a bit different culture than we normally do in London. There is always so much on offer!
