Day Out in London!

For February half term we decided to stay put and spend some time exploring locally and visiting with friends. Riley did two days of soccer camp and both girls spent lots of time playing, reading and relaxing! We did venture into London for a day trip to explore the British Museum's Egypt Exhibit since Riley has been learning about Ancient Egypt in school. While we were there, we also visited Coram's Fields, which is a park near the museum, and had dinner at the Rainforest Cafe, one of Riley's favorite restaurants back in the US. What a fun day that made us vow to visit London for day trips more often!

Donning their shades on the train ride

Even though it was sunny, it was still chilly!

Riley worked on a scavenger hunt provided by the museum

Lyla enjoyed it too!

Anicent Egypt brought to life!

Mummies!

After lunch, everyone started to get a little silly

Smiles!

Riley gave the museum a thumbs up

I think we're starting to lose them

And it's time to ditch the museum and play outside!

Happy sisters!

The girls really enjoyed playing in the sunshine!

Dinner with a lizard!

The perfect end to a wonderful day!
