Sasha Obama turns 8 years old today. She got an early start on the celebration yesterday when she went to see The Lion King in London with her sister Malia and mom Michelle.

After touring Westminster Abbey together, the girls headed to their private box at the Lyceum Theatre in London's West End.

Although they didn't make a scene, fellow audience members quickly spotted their famous faces...

"There was quite a buzz in the theater once people spotted them during the first part,"an onlooker told People.

Michelle also took the girls to visit the set of Harry Potter and to a traditional English pub on Monday for some fish and chips.

It's been a busy few days for the first daughters.

They were just in Paris where their mom met President Nicolas Sarkozy and took the girls shopping and to see the Eiffel Tower.

Sasha's one well-traveled 8-year-old. She'll certainly remember this birthday!
