History Lessons
Fortunately it was not a foggy day in London Town, so no need for alarm and the British Museum had NOT lost its charm.
A medium tube ride from Queensway station to to Totten Hill Rd. and then a short walk to the museum. My favorite exhibits were the Egyption room with the Rosetta Stone, Roman Britain, European history from hunter-gathering times through the Middle Ages and the clock and watch exhibit. Truly an extraordinary place with collections dating back to the 18th century. Afterwards grabbed a bite on a nearby side street lined with cafes.

Roger, We loved the museum in 1987 and especially loved the Egyptology stuff and the Rosetta Stone and how it is all displayed. Many other items too....
