After we arrived in London we went to an Italian café in Leicester Square and had coffee. 2 Then we went to the theatre to see a play called The Blue Room. I wanted to see it because my favourite actress, Nicole Kidman, was in it. We sat in a box and had a very good view. The play was really good and Nicole Kidman was wonderful. 3 When the play finished we went for a meal in a Japanese restaurant near the theatre. It was quite crowded, but the food was great. We had sushi and salad - it was very nice. After the meal my friends gave me presents and then the whole restaurant sang Happy Birthdayl 4 After we left the restaurant we walked past the theatre again - and there was Nicole Kidman! I went over and said hello and she was really friendly to me. We talked for about five minutes and then my friends took some photos of me and Nicole together. When I got home I emailed all my friends in Japan and told them about my birthday. I also sent them the photos of me and Nicole! It really was a night i remember.
