April 20 - Wembley ... and Wicked tonight

This blog is written in the afternoon as we are soon off out for dinner in town and then attending 'Wicked'. Some have already been to shows and really enjoyed them so we are hoping we can boost the cultural experience of the others. This morning we went off to Wembley. Our tour took us through the media centre, changing rooms onto the sidelines and then up into the stands to have witness the FA Cup. It was also great entering the field as the interior tunnels were still made up from yesterday's semi-final. We even had the opportunity to witness a game and a couple of great goals while we were there; actually, the game on was a charity game involving the major FA sponsors' employees ... but at least we can say we witnessed England playing (one team was kitted as England Home and one as England Away). An interesting fact. Wembley has the most toilets of any building in the world (2600+).
