the british museum

My friend Sharon calls the condition afflicted to those who have spent a day in London "London legs". You wake up the next morning and your legs feel like sore rubber. You do a heck of a lot of walking in the Big Smoke and if you're trying to see as much as possible in one day at the British Museum you do even more than usual!







We covered quite a bit of ground, had a nice lunch at Ultimate Burger (FULL of pesky Americans but wonderful burgers) and then eventually made our way to Whole Foods so that I could bow at the altar and then trudged back to the coach station for our return journey home to Brighton.

The British Museum is truly incredible - and it's free! They're starting an exhibit at the end of September featuring the first emperor of China; they're even bringing over some of the legendary Terracotta Soldiers. Millie will be gone by then but I'll have to remember to make a trip back.
