The visual gem, the Natural History Museum. 20 minute queue to get in. Seems it's a school term holiday, there was drizzle so where else do you take the kids?
To see dinosaurs of course!
Which one is the new kid on the block?
I'm on Daddy's shoulders so there!
The gorgeous interior

Maggie admiring Mary Anning's Lyme Regis finds.
Mary Anning found her first fossil at age 12. Given the her gender, impoverishment and lack of formal education she was never fully credited for her numerous scientific finds. Fascinating story though and now, of course, she receives the recognition she deserves for her life long fascination and discoveries in the marine fossil beds in Dorset's Lyme Regis area.
We'd actually gone to the museum to take in National Geographic Magazine Wildlife Photography exhibit. No photographs allowed but some truly inspiring and breathtaking images by mostly non professional photographers.
The photo defines the lack of curiosity by today's youth.
Outside a winter carnival had been set up complete with ice skating rink.
Thought the penguin helpers an absolutely marvelous concept!
She, however was uncertain. "Mom, remind me again why this is fun?"
Another day at the office.
St James of Piccadilly. Returned for more Xmas Cards.
A true old fashioned sanctuary to the down trodden. Pews on one side of the church were filled with those less fortunate.
He's lighting a candle and saying a prayer, she's writing a prayer note.
One prayer note left in January. After some more shopping finds at the Xmas fiare we headed off for SoHo to lunch at Ciaran's restaurant.
Window displays at Liberty were interesting. A store I'd never been in. Not a shopper so why would I have been. Thankfully Maggie is a shopper and knew I'd love this place for obvious reasons.
Would you look at this incredible interior??!!
Large Scrabble Tiles Flying From a Child's Back Pack.
Ho! Ho! Ho! Oh look a filming notification! LOL!
British humor
Exterior workmanship.
Front Door. What an architectural gem!!!
Window display which is a miniature version of the set from Matilda the Musical and the tie in to the large art piece hanging in the interior of the store. See the Scarbble tiles?
Those are not Halloween costumes!
Ciaran putting up Halloween decorations.
Happy days!
Took Maggie into the WholeFoods market where were amused by the pumpkin carving contest. Hands down my bean went for the clown pumpkin. Brilliant!

Maggie got back to Boscombe around 9:30pm and emailed she arrived safely. I was still awake but just barely. NyQuill had been taken to fight the cold virus. Not nearly as tasty as some pints of Guinness would have been in putting me to sleep but it did the trick. Thus, a quiet Halloween night in London.
