Museum of London


The Museum of London is a cute little place right on the London town wall (one "exhibit" is simply a window, pointing out the spot where a Roman wall from the 1st century meets a 13th century tower!). It takes you through the prehistoric history of the Thames valley through Roman and medieval times up to the Great Fire. Very cool, very kid friendly--I was embarrassed when answering a computer pop quiz on patron saints, getting all the answers correct, and having it light up in full electronic jackpot mode as if I were at a casino! Maybe a little too kid-friendly there!
