Museums

This weekend, I visited two major London museums - The British Museum and the Victoria & Albert.  Of course these are both HUGE and you could easily spend a week in each (and still probably wouldn't see everything!)  The British Museum has the Rosetta Stone, the Elgin Marbles (which are actually statues from Greece that a guy named Lord Elgin may have stolen), and lots of mummies.  Victoria & Albert focuses on the decorative arts.  My favorites were the statues and the fashion exhibit.
