Happy (Belated) Birthday Will!!!

The Barge coming down the Thames!


The Globe Theater!

The whole crew!

Some of the girls (Amaya, Julia, Brooke & Leah)! (See St. Paul's in the background?)


The very brave moms.

Marco had the best view!!

In honor of William Shakespeare's birthday we went down to the Globe Theater to see some festivities! On this warm evening (weather was key since there were thunder storms all day!), a barge floated down the Thames and stopped in front of the Globe. On it were some mistrals singing and playing instruments (lutes maybe?) and acting out bits of Shakespeare plays. This event marked the opening of the Globe theater for the Spring/Summer season!

We didn't see any plays; we simply went to watch the festivities and take a nice walk along the embankment! Fun was had by all!
