Typical London weather- raining!

Today we went to the British Museum :) There was so many things to see, I think it is literally impossible to see everthing in one day. We were there for over two hours and we barely even finished looking at everything on the first floor!

A statue of Hercules' head in the King's Library at the British Museum.


I saw the 'main' things like the Lindow Man and the Rosetta Stone but my favourite part was definitely seeing all the jewellery from the different cultures in the past. Some of it was so pretty, I wanted to take it home to wear myself!













London is so full of beautiful, ornate buildings and pretty things everywhere that it's just so tempting to take a photo of everything you see! 








We went on a hunt for St Pauls Cathedral and after about two hours of walking in circle and a stop off at TopShop, we finally made it there! Luckily, we arrived just as the afternoon service was about to begin and we watched the Choir Evensong perform- they sounded like angels! The inside of the catherdral was probably the most beautiful thing I have ever layed my eyes on. The ornate detailing the of amazing carvings on the walls, the massive pillars, the gold, gilded roof surrounding the incredile paintings of Saints was truly breath taking.
