The Science Museum

Breakfast in Borough Market - a huge foodie paradise, filled with every foodie delight imaginable.  We sampled and bought some preserve and chutneys, the best artisan sausage we have ever tasted (and it was British) and a punnet of lovely fresh raspberries, before nipping into this baker for breakfast.  A choice of artisan breads and pastries and a peanut butter that even met with Daddy's approval.  Superb!  A lovely walk, via Southwark Cathedral, across the river with views of Tower Bridge, before heading off to the Science Museum.

Another bright, busy space - very different to how John and I remember it!  Madeleine enjoyed the Bubble Show, in to which they had shoe-horned a teaspoon of "science" and the Space Exhibition.  I was chuffed to see Stevenson's actual Rocket.  How amazing is that?  John saw Ernie.  Apparently that is exciting too.

Another long walk in the afternoon - all the way from Kensington to the South Bank.  Ducks featured heavily again, but we also saw the changing of the Guard or should it be the changing of the horse  at Horseguards in Whitehall.

Just time for a quick ride on another kind of horse altogether on the South Bank.  Madeleine spent half the journey frantically pointing at the London Eye - maybe next time!

A beautiful city.  We had a lovely time.
