I stayed in this hotel with my friends like 6 years ago. All we could remember about it is the amazing breakfast buffet. This time, we decided to have breakfast there one day. It’s even better than I remember it.
The breakfast area in this hotel is very spacious with lots of windows and sunlight. Very cozy. Their breakfast is so yummy that you want to have a taste everything, even when you are at your fullest.
The food tastes very fresh and delicious. The buffet carries scrambled eggs, hash brown potatoes, sauteed potatoes, mushroms and many different kinds of fresh breads and cakes.
Pancakes, french toast, and waffles are made to order and they taste so good. Of course there is also a section of assorted fruits and corn flakes.
London Marriott Hotel Kensington Hotel is located on 147 Cromwell Road, Kensington.
By the way the hotel itself is very nice to stay in. The rooms are spacious and clean. And it’s like 15 minutes walking distance from Gloucester Road underground station.
I spotted this nails inc stand at House of Fraser department store in London. I loved how they added cotton and nail polish remover so that you can have the freedom of trying all the colors you want without bothering any sales people.

The contest is basically your predictions on the winners of this years Oscars. I have picked 9 categories out of the 24 that were announced. Your mission is to predict who will win in each of these categories. Take your time in researching the subject and getting the opinions of the experts in the field. You also have enough time to watch the nominated movies to make a better judgment yourself.
There will be only one winner. The prize will be a collection of gifts. I have not decided what to give out yet. I can only assure you one thing:
I will pick out the gifts while in London, and they will be very nice

Our “rendezvous” was at 6:30pm yesterday. We arrived at 6:10 to see a long queue of cars lined up to get into the parking area. Security was well arranged. You can see policemen, fire trucks, and security checks at the entrance. We prepared well for the traffic and my husband dropped us off and left.
There was a long queue to enter the theater. It took us like 20 minutes to get in. The queue started from a small hall that was arranged with booths selling food and souvenirs. In the middle of the hall there was a small football field like rug with a character dressed as a football entertaining kids and taking pictures with them.
The show started at 7:00pm and ended at 8:15pm, including a 20 minutes break. So the musical is around 1 hour. By the way we, know people who went to the 3:30pm show and they said it started at 4:00pm. So I think it will always start 30 minutes later.
Everyone had a blast, adults and kids. I was singing all the way as I know most of the songs by heart. The songs were playback and the actors were really professional. I’m not sure if they were from the original cast, some of them looked foreigners though. I managed to capture the video above of the flags song. I loved that they used the Kuwaiti flag. Everybody was singing and waving.
