Some alternative plans for Saturday, July 12...

Right now, we are going on the Harry Potter tour that day, but we picked it randomly - there was no reason for that day, in particular. However, it appears that the only day for Parliament tours is Saturday, and also, there is a new West End musical of Charlie & the Chocolate Factory that has matinees on Saturdays (and Wednesdays, which won't work for us) or Matilda (more Roald Dahl), which would be perfect for HRH Princess Sophie. It's expensive, but it would be cool. Anyway, the question is, do we pay a fee to change our Harry Potter tickets (it's either 10 pounds total, or per ticket - I am not entirely clear) and do Parliament & a show, or do we stick with our existing plan, since we are sure to do plenty of cool things, even without these?

I honestly do not have strong feelings either way. The show tickets are kinda pricey, but it's a cool opportunity. Going on a tour inside Parliament sounds pretty awesome to me, but I can't imagine it is something Sophie will be remotely interested in and I'll go back some day. It's across the street from Westminster Abbey, so I figure the day we go there, we can also wander the grounds or something like that and see the outside close-up. It really makes no difference to me in the end.

I's like to do the inside Parliament tour and wold pay the $17 penalty to change. $67 and I'd want to think about it... until Sunday, 14 July 2014.

that would be impressive, as july 14 is a monday...

i will check with warner brothers to see what the charge is. would you also want to go see a show?

I'd be happy to skip the show (and babysit Sophie). NY is closer and I don't go there for theater.

sophie is actually the one who would like these shows the most (and the only reason to pick a children's show and a matinee - otherwise we could do it any night). but if you don't want to go to a show, which is totally fine, then we can skip it. sophie will be entirely uninterested in parliament, however, and she and i would probably skip that.

we can wait to see what warner bros says about changing the tickets, and if it's very expensive, we can either forego parliament, or maybe you guys can do it in the morning & meet us at harry potter, or something.
