Today we left home early and caught the Tube to King's Cross St. Pancras. Then we walked past Big Ben see fig 4, Westminster Abbey see fig 2 and Dean's Square. After the weather got too wet for us see fig 3 we had a change of plans, we decided against going to Buckingham Palace as was our original plan and decided to catch a bus to the Science Museum.

On the way to the Bus stop we walked past the Horse Guard see fig 1 inside his booth, how I envied him sitting up there with his warm sheep wool trousers and warm little booth out of the rain.

On the Bus we decided to stop at Harrods instead of going straight to the Science Museum. We arrived at Harrods see fig 5 and hurried straight to the Toy Department. The toy department was amazing, it had all the fanciest toys (and the fanciest prices) and a whole room dedicated to Lego. They had every toy  imaginable and something for every type of kid. There was sports equipment for the sporty kids, there were computer games for the techy kids, dolls for the more classical kids and 33,000 pound child sized cars for the more extreme and loaded kids. after that we went around Harrods searching for Souvenirs for our friends. On the way we  had pictures with the store teddy figures see fig 7. Then it was back on the Bus and on our way to the Science Museum. When we arrived it was two O'clock in the afternoon and none of us had had lunch yet, so we went and had lunch at the Energy Café on the Ground Floor of the Museum. next we went up to the other Exhibits, we went to medical history and the art of medicine. Then we went down to floor three and went to the Rockets and Space exhibit Launchpad were we went to the Rocket Show and tried out some of the displays. see fig 6
