Speaking of which, Sunday morning found us on the tube rushing to get to church. We thought we were going to be late, but we made it just in time for the Sacrament hymn and the sacrament. It was fast and testimony meeting, and we heard testimonies from all over the world. The Stake visitor (maybe the Stake President) spoke about this and how it demonstrated God’s love for his children as the Gospel makes its way to every country and every people. He also spoke about the need for the message of the Gospel, particularly families, to be spread through the world and the hope that comes through Jesus Christ, the peace that comes in troubled times. I remember really liking what he said and feeling the Spirit.
After Sacrament meeting, we walked over to the science museum and saw some dinosaur bones. The best part about the museum was the entrance. After that, it was pretty much another science museum. From the science museum, we took the tube over to the British Museum, the largest museum in the world. We saw the Egyptian collection, the Rosetta Stone, Dumb Dumb, and a really cool library room. Before we went in, we ate lunch outside and let Madeline chase the birds in her stroller. After the museum, we left mom behind as we started walking up to King’s Cross station. This led to mom being mad at everyone for a period of time. Pretty much on par with the wet spoon incident. When we got to King’s Cross, we went to platform 9 ¾ and got our photos pushing the cart into the wall. We then got some food. Peter and Abbey had burgers and a milk shake. The rest had Japanese curry. We then had Mille Filleule, which was delicious. From there, we walked over to the Biritish library and saw the Magna Carta, the King James Bible, some original Beetles stuff, the Guttenberg Bible, and other old stuff. Unfortuantely, they don’t let you take pictures of anything, which is kind of sad.
After the museums, we took the tube back to our hotel…with 10 pence left on our Oyster cards! Pretty well planned if you ask me. After so much walking, it was nap time for everyone.
