The British Museum is an impressive place, both outside and in. Have you where's Waldo'd me in the first picture yet?
The Assyrians carved some seriously awesome stuff. It's hard to tell, but this thing was like 9 feet tall.
Gorgon on a vase. It's awesome.
We quickly noticed a running theme - it's really rare for old statues of people to survive with their heads still attached. At least 85% of them were missing heads, and the few that had heads were almost all missing noses. Necks are structurally weak, I suppose.
We loved both of these. The one is cute and the other is hilariously frowny.
The Rosetta Stone! I find the software much easier to understand than the slab.
It's colder than I would've expected on Easter Island.
The Coronation of Haile Selassie. An 80 year old Ethiopian painting.
Other random things we liked.
Preserved peat bog corpse man! This is what your whisky tastes like.
This is the exterior of the Tower of London. It's almost 1,000 years old!
Some pictures inside an ancient throne room.
Lions and centaurs and dragons, oh my.
The inner grounds of the Tower had a number of resident ravens that were being fed large hunks of meat.
Maggie: "Traitor's gate! It's where you go and then they hang you."
Exterior of the Bloody Tower. It was filled with torture devices!
The infamous Rack and the Scavenger's Daughter. Two of the lovely implements from the Bloody Tower.
There's nobody in that suit of armor. And the horse is fake too.
We just took a picture of this because it reminded us of Linus. So goofy.
Right near the London Eye is an London's aquarium. It was a fairly generic aquarium and too buried in the city center to have any large, impressive displays. But here are some fun things we saw there.
More aquarium stuff, including a sweet fake whale skeleton and adorable garden eels.
Our feet and a shark.
