p.s. Regarding the rest of London

Just to add a couple of notes about London that I never mentioned...

I got to see Wicked, starring Idina Menzel (popularly known by her role as Maureen in Rent). This would be the musical based on the book by Gregory Maguire, about how exactly the Wicked Witch of the West came to be regarded as wicked. Or, moreover, why it is that we only hear Dorothy and the Wizard's version of the story. The book and the musical are both fabulous, though very different. The show was amazing, my favorite of the 3 big-name musicals I saw in London.

I also had my 20th birthday during our London stay. To celebrate I went with some friends to TGIFridays in Leicester Square, where Casino Royale also happened to be holding its premiere that evening. It was fun, and I am eternally grateful that I have graduated from teenager to twenty-something.
