I Wanted My Mummy!!!



 
  Well, I got a bit behind on blogging, so sorry!

  On Wednesday, July 1, we had kind of a low key day. We went to the British Museum, had some ice cream and ate at Strada on  Kensingtion High Street. The British Museum is huge, with lots to see, and we recommend it. Again, skip the Science Museum in favor of the Natural History Museum or the British Museum. (We did not do the Albert and Victoria Museum).

  We also learned today that in London, ice cream cones come with or without "flake". That would be a skinny stick of chocolate stuck into the side of your ice cream!  

    Enjoy the pictures! (Next blog: We go to Herrods!)

The mummy exhibits were very cool!
