I had 4 hours to kill between things and I decided to walk through the British Museum instead of go to the library like a responsible student. 🙂

Field Trip! Weald and Downland Open Air Museum

On October 14, 2015February 25, 2019 By Katy O'BrienLeave a comment

5th October So these are from our trip to the Weald and Downland Open Air Museum where they saved a number of 15th-17th century structures (and maybe a Victorian one or two) and moved them to this space. It was cold and rainy but also cool.

Tate Modern

Then after Somerset House I walked over the Millennium Bridge to the Tate Modern. Modern art is not really my thing (mainly because I don’t know enough about it) but it was cool to wander around.

Happened Upon A Lunchtime Organ Recital Like You Do

On October 2, 2015February 25, 2019 By Katy O'BrienLeave a comment

Also I forgot today I took the long way around to my building and passed this church, and there was a sign for a lunchtime organ recital and so I went! We weren’t supposed to take a picture but I snuck one in (don’t tell the vicar): The recital was really very cool and so …

Today I did a tour of the Archaeology library, and then I went to the National Portrait Gallery which I realized I had actually not been to before I don’t think.
