Space invaders

Our flight back wasn't until 9pm so we figured we'd fill the day with a visit to the British Museum. Being Easter Monday it was packed, but apart from a few people who clearly had no concept of personal space, that didn't bother us much.

If you like "lots of old shit", as a passerby put it, I doubt you can do much better than the British Museum. I reckon we only covered around 1/3 before closing time. One surprising aspect, though, was the sheer number of people taking photographs of the exhibits - in front of statues, coffins, bits of pottery, you name it - without even spending any time to read about what they even were.
