British Museum

The British Museum is huge. Much too large to really cover in one trip. We spent 4 hours there and I would say barely saw anything. It was a great visit though and if we had time or lived here, would visit regularly. Interesting story, two boys were getting tired and so their mother, a Brit of middle eastern descent, tells them; "fine, we will just stay at home next holiday and (she) will unlock all the TV channels so their brains will rot and they can look forward to working at McDonalds for the rest of their lives."  I had a hard time not laughing, mostly because even here they use it as an example of a dead end job.

Heather wanted lunch at Harrods...which means she spent our entire lunch budget for the trip of our pieces of sushi and some soy beans. Not quite but cheap is not really in the Harrods vocabulary. But we did have the Horse Guards just casually ride by (on horses of courses) while we were sitting in the  park.

Heather then made me take her to Ditsch Pretzel, a crappy store in the Hammersmith Station. Much like a Ditsch it was mostly disappointing. A little crusty, salty on the outside and bland in the center once past the thin crust. :-)
