My Long Weekend in London again!

Hello Everybody! I had a long weekend with my parents in London England, and sorry for not writing anything during the weekend! I was focusing on showing my parents around!
The trip started on tuesday actually, as I slept at my parents house, so my brother didn´t need to pick me up across town to drive us to the airport.
The trip from Sweden to London went fine, and after we landed, we checked into the hotel, the same hotel I stayed at just last week, and the guy at the reception recognised me and was quick on handing me the keys to the room. The room was actually the same room we stayed in 10 years ago.
After we checked in, we headed to Abbey Road, but it was too dark to see it properly, so we headed back to the hotel and chilled for the night.
The first full day, which was my Moms Birthday, we went to the Tower of London and had a look around, it was my second time, and my paretns first time there, so they wanted to have a real look of it. After that we went to Borough Market, and I had some to eat. We then headed back to the hotel and chilled for a bit, and got ready to go out and have some dinner. After the dinner We headed down to Embankment and surprised my mom with another present, going to the Mamma Mia Musical, which she didn´t know anything about! She liked it!
The Second day, we almost all over the place. We first headed down and walked to London Eye and seeing Big Ben. We then walked up past Westminster Abbey to St James Park and Buckingham Palace. We then walked up to Wellington Arch and Harrods, and had a look inside, My mom found it too posh, which is faie enough!
The We went to Covent Garden, China Town, Piccadilly Circus and Leicester Square, in which they had put up a Mr Bean Statue.
We then headed back to the hotel and chilled for a bit. I then had dinner and went to a concert (Stereophonics) at the O2 Arena in North Greenwich. I was there about half an hour before the doors were opening, so I had some things to drink and waited for the doors. I had a seat next to the sound stage, which was decent. The opening act, The Wind + The Wave, was good and was a surprise, as most opening acts aren´t that good.
Then Stereophonics showed up! Holy Shit they were good! They played quite a few of my favourites like I wanna get lost with you, Superman, Mr and Mrs Smith, Handbags and Gladrags amongst other songs!
I had a grea time. I got back to the hotel about midnight, and went to bed almost immediatly.
