British Museum and Pub Dinner: check and check!

Today Jana was able to check off two items from her list:  a visit to the British Museum and fish and chips at a local pub.  First, the British Museum --

The British Museum is free and a very popular destination for

the English and tourists like us.

This is a view of the inside of the Museum.

We strategize our visit - there is so much to see!

 

Our focus on this visit was ancient Egypt, Assyria,

and ancient Europe, which included Celtic and

Roman Britain.

We start with the Egyptian antiquities.

 

Poppa keeps an eye on Lincoln as Mom visits nearby displays.

A favorite for Lincoln was the "Clocks and Watches" section

that displayed the earliest forms of clocks over the centuries.

 

This particular clock kept Lincoln's attention for quite awhile.

The ball took 1 minute to move through each side of the grooved plate.

Lunch at The Great Court Restaurant at the top of the Museum.

After lunch, we visit the Egyptian mummies and tombs.

 

As Jana visits the gift shop, Lincoln plays with Poppa with his new toys.

 

 

For dinner, we head to a local pub, The Swan, for fish and chips

and for Lincoln, a burger with fries.

 

 

 

Tomorrow, we head to Cambridge by train!
