London Day 2



Westminster Abbey


This dress is made up of colored pasta at the V&A. Way imaginative!

Wrought Iron sculpture at V&A.

My feet hurt! We did a lot of walking today and I wore my newer shoes; I have a blister! I will live though. This morning we went to Westminster Abby. The glass windows were beautiful. A lot of royalty and famous people are buried there. We then went to the National Gallery. There are so many paintings. I think the highlight of our trip there was that they had a drinking fountain -- Hooray! They had several Van Gogh's, Rembrandt's, and Monet's but the room the Monet's were in was under construction so we couldn't see them, to sad. We went to the V&A (Victoria and Museum) A lot of neat stuff. A lot of walking around in circles because the floors weren't connected and some flights of stairs only went between 2 floors. Like I said earlier, a lot of walking but more in store for tomorrow. Ate at a great Italian place, the waiter didn't like us because we only ordered tap water instead of other drinks, and then asked for a pitcher of tap water.

Just wondering. Did they tie the pasta together? That is way cool!! I dont think I would have the patience to do that.
