Fab day out but bring a packed lunch!
A great day out! Some fantastic exhibits (it was great to see Dippy the Dinosaur back in the museum!) and so much to see. Was quite warm in some parts (partly because it’s an old building, and partly because it was so busy) Despite being very busy, we were able to see everything we wanted to. We spent 4.5 hrs there and it flew by. If we wanted to read and see everything we would probably want to go twice, we were shattered after the time we had been there so we’re very happy with what we had seen but you could spend so many more hours there immersed in different parts of history. Would recommend this as a place to visit for all ages. We didn’t visit the garden as it was chucking it down with rain so hopefully will see that next time we go but I hear that’s beautiful and there’s lots to see and learn about. Only criticism we would have would be the price of the food in there so id recommend bringing your own packed lunch or going after you’ve had lunch. We paid £15 for two cans of Coke and two cheese and tomato sandwiches. But considering it’s a free attraction, still a cheap day out. I am sure the profit from the food adds to the donations they receive that keep it running and fund the amazing research they do there.

Museum Mooch
I visited London for the first time and this museum was at the top of my list to go to. We had ordered our free entry tickets online the night before which I would highly recommend doing as we skipped easily an hour queue to get inside. The first thing we did was eat at the cafe - very expensive - but satisfactory food. We explored every single part of the museum which took 3 hours in total. There is so much to look at from space to dinosaurs. Our favorite expeditions were the sea life and birds which completely blew us away with how many pieces they had in their collection. The architecture of the building alone is worth the visit, and this is noticed all throughout the museum. This is a MUST visit in London if you have time to spare!
