Museum of natural history and the V&A


I really wanted to see the blue whale at the museum of natural history. Hubby and I watched a special on his it was placed hanging in the large room 







It was magnificent and an oh wow moment 

There were of course lots of other exhibits 





An escalator going through the earth. Kinda cool 



Cheddar man 





Some dodos 





An extinct marsupial 





And lots of other bones 

So much to see. 

We then headed off to the V&A museum 
Victoria and Albert for those that want to know 

An interesting light fixture 



The rape of Persephone  

















That was just room and in another 



























Nancy and I actually separated because there was just so much to see and we were interested in different areas. 

It was fascinating 
We had lunch at the cafe 
Got the tube home. It was really crowded as us a sunny Sunday and a long weekend 

And now back in our room resting 
A truly marvellous day

  4. One could spend a life time and still not see it all.
    Coffee is on and stay safe.
