The Museum of London and Disembodied Voices

Well, I got my relaxing day earlier than I had anticipated.
Today's class was Living and Dying. We talked about the paintings we saw at the National Portrait Gallery and went to the Museum of London. There, we looked at various artefacts pertaining to the life of a Londoner in the late 1600s. It was cool to see the large dress on display - the skirt was massive! I can't imagine actually walking and living in one of those buggers.
On the way to the museum we walked along Aldersgate Street - the house I'm living in at school next year is named after this street. I took a picture :D
We also saw a building that survived the Great Fire in 1666 and is still standing today. It was impressive.
One of the girls and I were walking together. We both noticed how, even though it's only been a week, we can spot the tourists. It's pretty funny.
After class, Nicole and I went to Kensington Palace. Kensington is where 7 princesses lived, including Princess Diana. It was cool to see the dresses and things that they wore, and the rooms were amazing. However, some of them were slightly creepy. It was an 'Enchanted Palace' where you could walk around and try to figure out which princess belonged in each room, so they had dresses and things set up in them all. Except the clothes didn't actually have any wax body or mannequin or anything in them. Plus they had speakers playing recordings of voices when people walked past and many of the rooms were dark, so they were kinda weird. But overall it was a really nice place to see.
When we got back, we decided to stay in. We both started working on homework and I talked with Kyle. It was nice to talk with him again :]
And that was pretty much it for the day. It was nice to not be running around all day, especially since I'm planning on walking around Bloomsbury tomorrow (near the Centre) and maybe doing some shopping ;D
Till then,
