Visiting London

So this half term coming up if you don't have any holidays planned, then why not hop on the train and see some sites up in London. 

There are some real cost effective ways to have a good day out, instead of being indoors, due to bad weather. It should never stop you, just wrap up warm and once inside I can assure you, you will be in the warm. 

I haven't checked the forecast for next week, but why not check out the museums too. 

The London Transport Museum is brilliant. I paid £16.00 for an Annual Pass. 

It can be confusing to find at first, as it says it is on Wellington Street, but there are two entrances. 

You actually want to walk up Wellington Street, up to Covent Garden turn left all the way around and you will see the London Transport Museum shop, and that's where it is. Then you have The Natural History Museum, The Science Museum and the Victoria Albert Museum. I got to say the Science museum was my favourite, it has plenty to do for young children and adults.

​It has a play area for children in the basement, where they can play with water, build with giant LEGO, there is a climbing frame and loads of activities to do.

One of my images taken from the Natural History Museum

The picture above is of the inside The Natural History Museum as you come into the museum, from the side entrance on Exhibition Road. It is one of the first museums you come to, on Cromwell Road and then behind that if you continue on down towards Exhibition Road, from Cromwell road is the Science Museum.

Next door over the road is the Victoria and Albert Museum, great if you want to see all the different clothes from the many generations. It is great for those who love fashion.

So if you don't want to splurge too madly but you want to take your children somewhere different, then why not pick one of these museum.

The London Transport Museum costs, Kids go free:

Adult: £17.50
Concessions: £13.50
