London Day3

10-February-2015

Chris being Chris 'ran' into work today with his shirts for the rest of the week('shorts on', in the cold!) - sounds like him.
I started the kids on their correspondence school, looks good but will take a bit of fine-tuning.
Visited the British Museum today, had lunch(well just 'cakes'(mostly left uneaten(icing picked off)) at Patisserie Valerie on the way - noticed a bit of 'Allpress' coffee around).

Grimacing in the cold outside the British Museum

Too much to take in at the museum (super fantastic), so we concentrated on the 'not to miss' list.
The Grand Court is fabulous!





The Grand Court - Never a Dull Moment with the boys.

Did some prep work while there for our Greek trip to come (looked at all the bits of the Parthenon that won't be there in Athens!).
The kids felt pretty happy with themselves when they saw all the school trips 'working'.

The 'Rosetta Stone'(key to the modern understanding of Egyptian hieroglyphs) - surely this is educational for the kids??

The compulsory 'mummy' section.



They mummified everything - even 'eels'(in small bronze case).

Headed back to the apartment through the 'rush' traffic - had to watch out for Lachlan being squashed(too little to be seen in the huge waves of people getting on and off the underground).
