• London's Museums

    May 31 in England ⋅ ⛅ 21 °C

    Our first day back in London was a busy one.

    It began with the Imperial War Museum which tells the story of the two world wars incredibly well. It is a sombre place, even more so in the Holocaust section, where fittingly, no photos are allowed.

    We then headed over town to the British Museum, which was absolutely packed. We had booked one of the museums tours, 'Around the World in 90 Minutes' and were glad we did. It took us to the highlights and then we went ourselves to the Egypt section.

    From here we walked around Covent Garden which was also packed. Dinner was at the Lamb & Flag and then we went to see the 30,095th performance of The Mousetrap. We didn't pick whodunnit and we won't be sharing who did, as is the custom.

    Finally at 10:30pm we were back at our hotel!!
