British Museum















Ok ok here is the story. Max told me he read about this "must-be-amazing" exhibition called Dragon & Dog in the British Museum. This was one of the many things to do or see during the past weeks here in London, while everything was about China. Well I agreed to go and thought it is an opportunity to finally see the British Museum as well. Up on arrival we had to ask for this special exhibition and the girl at the counter seemed a bit irritated, but led us into The Great Court, which you can see on the smaller pictures that I uploaded here. It is really impressive! Anyway, when we finally got to that special exhibition we found that it was not what we expected... a few drawing tables, crayons, markers and wax crayons together with some black and white colour-them-yourself copies of Dogs, Dragons and all the other zodiac signs they have in China...and on top: it was for kids and the supervising girl laughed at us when she understood that we actually came for that one. After colouring our zodics we took a walk through the other exhibition halls, which was more motivating than what we came for in the first place.





















Here you see some kids at the children's activity in a Museum and on the last picture you see more of China in London. This picture was taken somewhere in Zone 3 and they still participated!

Haha! Da musste ich aber lachen. Wo sind die ausgemalten Bilder?
Also diese AUSMALEN.. einfach himmlisch! Ein Grund mehr nach London zu kommen. Ich kauf hier schonmal Wachsmalstifte, wenn die erlaubt sind. Das ist einfach mein Lieblingsstift (hab ich gerade keinen zur Hand, nehm ich einfach eine Kerze!). Hoffe die Hammergeile Ausstellung ist dann noch da...
