First I started my day with a shower problem. Well, it is a feeling of déjà vu: have a look of day 3 of my previous visit in London. This time the curtain of the shower hanging over the bath fall... with no reason. Hopefully, I was about to turn off the water. I call Katie, my rental agent, and she quickly reply she will send someone. A guy call Mickael came around 7pm and fixed the problem in about 10 minutes. Cool!
After breakfast, I've been to British Library. I stayed there for almost 3 hours. I visit every room I could. The reading rooms are not accessible to public. It doesn't matter, there was the permanent exhibition I wanted to explore more and there was also a new exhibition about maps. Strangely I've never associate map and art but the first maps drawning where really art. And maps have also been use for advertising and propagande. There was some really peculiar map with "god" in the background.
Inside the Library
I had tea at the library and go for the Wallace Collection. Wallace Collection is a very impressive art museum. http://www.wallacecollection.org/ I took the audio guide and it worth the 4 pounds (visit is free). I never thought it would be that big. I stay there for about 2 hours. I had lunch in a yard surround by a glass roof. Very classy. I feel I was in a fairy tale. I came back walking and of course get lost a little bit.
Beautiful round street
As I was finding my way I realise that I haven't been to Trafalgar Square yet. (I know what you think Helene: shame on me!) In fact I explore new areas. But I will go friday and I will visit my favorite park and will pay a salute to the queen at Buckingham palace.
Having a nice lunch
Well now I have to plan my visit to York for tomorrow. Have a nice sleep!
