A Night at the Museum




Tomorrow I fly off to the UK.
And I still haven't got back into a blogging routine
and managed to visit everyone.
I usually fall behind with my blog when I'm away
and I won't have access to a computer on this trip.
I haven't even blogged all the photos from my previous trips to the UK.
So as these photos were ready and waiting for some words
I thought I would post them now.

On my Eastertime trip,
we went to a museum. ( The Hancock in Newcastle, as the link is broken).
It used to be an old fashioned one
with lots of stuffed animals.
But it has had a makeover.


With some scary additions.



I remember this T Rex from years ago.
Still a scene stealer.


I was so busy snapping away taking photos of the family,
I didn't get to see what this exhibit was.
Shame on me!


Some family fun.


I like the next two photos for their
blurryness,
and quiet interlude



in an otherwise
silly day.



Beware the Roman soldier.
And the Easter Bunny.


And a long
wait.

What lovely pictures! thanks for sharing. I've been wanting to go to the museum for a long time. May was Museum Month here in Guatemala, and unfortunately, I didn't managed to get to one :-( Hopefully, I will some time this year.
Have a great trip to the UK!!

How cool is that butterfly "wallpaper", I love that!
Looks like a fab day out. At least the rain has stopped for you Lynne, it is lovely and sunny here in England with a cool breeze.

I've enjoyed catching up on all the posts I've missed while I've been offline Lynne - glad you've been enjoying sunny days in Germany and lovely days with your family in the UK! I was in your beautiful part of England recently and I recognise some of it now, which is lovely. In fact I think I have a picture of those same pretty pots of pink sweet william :o)

Hope you're having fun on this current trip too. K x
