London in the snow

People say it always rains in London. This is not true it also snows. The snow drifts lazily suspended in the air before settling on the jackets and melting on the warm streets. My first impressions of London is of people huddling from the cold in a crowded square, crowds spill form the underground and  desperately shuffle for the safety and warmth of a Costa’s coffee.

Once again attractions include British museum, Piccadilly circus, a pie and a pint of their best, the natural history museum and, apparently, shoe shopping. The natural history museum is a fantastic building full of intricate detail and grand rooms. Unfortunately the content is a little low on the learning factor and plays too heavily for ‘wow factor’ spoiling the overall effect. Better content is found in the science museum down the road including “listening post for the sound of the internet” and a Turing (Allen Turing) exhibit.

I leave you with this picture of a typically frosty London girl at Trafalgar square.
