It is a painless and pleasant way of getting exercise and being out in the fresh air. As for museums, well, it's actually STILL my ambition to have a flat in the V & A museum. I can't imagine anywhere I'd rather live, and I often imagine myself roaming up and down the galleries after dark! In London, now, they sometimes do night events and sleepovers in museums, which is the next best thing.

I can see the attraction but I prefer to walk for the sake of walking and relaxation rather that for the purpose of getting somewhere (does that make sense to you?).GBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10289400344300258872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1949425054295660529.post-92187857820249253432014-02-24T08:28:26.825+01:002014-02-24T08:28:26.825+01:00Thank you, Carol!

And not so scary. But perfect for a three year old and his grandmother!

It was just like being welcomed back home into a family and it is very much appreciated.<br /><br />Robin Williams has never been a favourite actor of ours, either, but he is wonderful in our opinion in the film 'dead Poets Society'. Do you know of it? If not, then we can totally recommend it to you.Jane and Lance Hattatthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16831890261259302647noreply@blogger.com
