An amazing day at the V&A https://www.vam.ac.uk/- it was a sensory overload. I spent about 5 hours there and probably saw less than 5% and took in only probably 1% of that. These photos are the culled ones – you should see the rest
First I had morning tea to celebrate Elise’s birthday but sadly without Elise but it was fun anyway. Maitre Choux in South Kensington http://www.maitrechoux.com/
Hot chocolate about 7/10, choux about 6/10 but the little croquette 9/10
Then across the road to the V&A and a wonderful day
Cast room – started in the 1870s they were replicas for people that couldn’t afford to travel and who wanted to study European art
The other cast hall being renovated
This is the cafe!!
Outside
Incredible place! In all your trips to London hadn’t you been there before? Although it seems as if you could do a hundred trips and not see it all. And the cafe- gorgeous!
Been there a couple of times but spent more time there this time – you could go every week it’s so magnificent
