There’s just something about a day at the museum in a new country that really makes you feel like you’ve soaked up some of its true history and glory. You leave feeling more connected to the people, with a better understanding of who they are and how we can relate on one universally beautiful thing: art. Art comes in all cultures and is such a window into the soul of the people. Here’s some pics from our few hours at the Victoria and Albert Museum (or called the V&A for short) .

Took this pic as we walked by the Natural History Museum. Must go inside next time!
Mr. Dinosaur in the grand foyer
 Always down for some sweet buns. |
 The best kind of lunch. Take and go! Mozzarella, basil, and salami baguette with fresh pressed apple juice from the museum cafe. |
A good tip for haphazard tourists like me.
 We had the best tour guide and new friend, Mr. Ed H! Thanks Ed for the lovely day. |
The Gloucester Candlestick
The stained glass is an absolute must see in person. The coloring is impeccable.
 Work titled: “Christ Riding on the Ass”…no literally. |
Love the photobomber dude is rockin’ the same pose as C. Made me laugh.
Love the ornate gothic look.
 Rodin’s first large sculpture – 1876 |
 What I now look at every day before I head begrudgingly to the gym. Sigh. |
 The original beanie for royal hipsters. |
 I’m just gonna be honest here. I have no idea what this is. |
 Where Coachella kids got their style. |
 Laptops are considered relics now? Shit, I feel old. |
 One of each, please. |
 More tea, because….well, it’s LONDON, DUH! |
