As you can see ... Sunday is freezing!
It was my husband's birthday and we were on our way up to The British Museum. There we were to meet up with our daughter . So we caught a No14 bus and sat upstairs, so we could see our journey better. This is Putney Bridge , which has just had a lot of work done to it, including these wonderful new Victorian Lamp Columns.
Enjoy the sites of London. :)
Don't these boys look as if they are enjoying themselves ! :)
Eros surrounding by presents!
Then we arrived at the British Museum.
Making sure the tourists are safe ... !
Then it was time to go into this wonderful building ... amazing ceiling.
The first Exhibition you see when you enter, is about the last 60 years of Germany .... in objects. The first object is a Beetle Car ... wonderful.
This is a piece of the Berlin Wall.
The three of us, had a beautiful meal in the top restaurant , to celebrate my wonderful husband's birthday. Then my husband and daughter went of to see The Ming Exhibition. Me... well l went of to the Rubber Blade Stamp , around the corner!
When l was going there, l saw this gentleman and his friends. Amazing shoes, ( no socks ... glittering shoes with red souls) dark sunglasses and a wool coat laid over his shoulders. Perhaps he was important or thought he was. 
Then it was back to the Museum, l wanted to see the Death Exhibition , which l have seen several times before.
This is called " Cradle to Grave" by Pharmacopoeia. It was created by Susie Freeman, a textile artist, David Critchley. a video artist and Dr. Liz Lee, a general practitioner.
This the Rock Crystal skull, ( late 19th century AD ). It was originally thought to have been Aztec, but recent research proves it to be European.
We had a wonderful day. If you are in London, this museum is worth a visit, it has some amazing exhibitions and a lot of it is free.
