They're Alive

Fiona came to visit this weekend and on Sunday morning we made a cultural trip to the Manchester Museum. It was literally stuffed with taxidermy (!) but also had a small collection of live creatures in the vivarium. Chameleons, bright orange frogs, snakes, iguanas! Well worth a visit!
Also check out Fiona's blog of her time at an orphanage in Cambodia - her photography is ace!

Dino Saurs



Today we went to the Natural History Museum. I have been since I was probably 4 years old but even now I enjoyed wandering around seeing the stuffed animals, the new Darwin Centre (which I have watched a lecture by the architect of) and most importantly the dinosaur in the main hall. We also came across London Fashion Week at Somerset House and took a few snaps feeling rather underdressed! It was great to catch up with friends and feel a bit touristy for the day!
