ok here are my 5 best things about st. pauls:
#1 - it's HUGE, and had they let me take pictures inside i would have snapped a shot of the inside of the dome for you, it makes you feel like an ant.
#2 - you won't have to exercise the day you visit the cathedral because, no joke, it is a whopping 1060 steps to get to the top, i promise you'll get some cardio.
this your progress halfway to top
see those black specks?
those are people
#3 - you don't have to do your hair the day you visit st. pauls either because once you get to the top no one will be able to tell if you did or not anyway.
#4 - the VIEW from the top is absolutely fantastic, highly recommended and definitely worth the ridiculous amounts of stairs
and #5 - if you feel so inclined you can definitely pull a Mary Poppins and feed the birds on the steps of st. pauls, this is not only appropriate, but encouraged
and 5 tips for the best london les miserables experience :
1. get there an hour early and buy fabulous student seats for under 30 pounds
2. wonder about the theatre district and perhaps accidentally come across china town
3. sit next to the most darling elderly Australian couple that asks you after every act, 'now isn't this just fabulous?'
4. have the most amazing actor play jean valjean and hang on his every word
and 5. come out after the play to buckets of rain, but don't care because you're in london and you just saw les mis and your still stupidly happy about it
