London Day 2

Apr 14, 2012 10:13

Posted from my phone in the coffee shop since wifi in hotel is barely functional.

Visited the British Colonial Museum and the War&Churchill museums. Lots of cool stuff, some of which really belongs back in the places you stole it from, Britain. The War Museum was really interesting, a lot of the rooms were left in 1945 and not disturbed until the 70s! It's located in the war rooms, the secret basement headquarters of the war cabinet during WWII.

Also stopped at Forbidden Planet, the geek memorabilia megastore. Got a Tom Baker fridge magnet for my parents, a Torchwood deck of cards, a Torchwood book with some good costume reference info, Stark Industries mug to leave at K's for when I have tea there, and a big "To Victory" vintage style WWII Dalek poster.

Stopped at a bland chain pub on the way home for beer and sausage. At this point my feet were about to fall off, since I'd been wearing 3" heeled boots walking around for 7 hours. Took a nap and decided not to get up after that.

Today is fetish and fabric shopping, I think. I've been reading all comments but don't have a chance to reply yet -- <3 you all!

real life, travel
