PHANTOM OF THE OPERA!!!!!!!

 ok so i'm writing a little out of order but i so have to write about this now! we just got back from seeing phantom of the opera and it was so freaken amazing!!!!!!!!!! its the same one as the broadway version a little different staging of course but it was a lot cheaper, and guess what? i got to sit in the 3rd row!!!!!!!!!!! it was so close but far enough away to keep some of the illusion in all actuality one to two rows back would have been better for everything but the chandelier, the chandelier rose and dropped right over my head!!!! i had forgotten that it fell down right before intermission, so i heard a scream from above me and looked up and it was falling right on my head! seriously i think for a moment my heart stopped beating; then it kick started at twice the rate, my friend next to me said he almost started screaming himself, he had never seen phantom before and was not very used to theaters. i think this was even better than broadways version, at least as far as memory serves and my vision when i was at the broadway show, which was not very good as high up as i was. this was amazing! you could see everything and all the expressions on the actors faces!!! i was very happy. then to top it all off as we were riding back to the daniel house we saw the guy who plays RAUEL!!!!!!!!!!!!! some of us first saw him when he was walking quickly by us down the escalator and then when we were on the tube a few of the girls got to sit near him!!! of course we tried to be cool and not giggle all over the place or ask him for his autograph for he seemed to want to be like every one else, and truly we would have thought that had we not just seen the play, but it was so exciting!!! to get to ride like anyone else with a theater star! who has an amazing voice!!!!!! i was so hyper afterwards talking about everything that the others kept telling me to breath, now i have to re-calm myself down so i can go to bed will get back on track with the days in order when i get back tomorrow. until then
from london with love
