We went back to the National Gallery this afternoon.  The Gallery is open until 21:00 on Friday so we left around 16:00 to do a little grocery shopping, and then I went back and stayed until 20:00.  The place isn’t deserted in the evening, but it seems like it is compared to the crowds earlier in the day.  I know you are probably tired of hearing about museums, but museums are what we do.  The National Gallery is a wonderful place (if you like museums that is). 

On Saturday guess where we went?  That is right another museum.  We went back to Tate Britain.  I’ll spare you the details.  Tonight we went out to eat and had a wonderful dinner.  The restaurant was just about deserted, but the server explained that August is when Londoners go on holiday.  And this restaurant while not exclusive, it was fine dining so the tourists looking for fish n’chips probably won’t end up here.  Mass tonight was well within the 35-40 minute average.  I think the homily was probably less than 10 minutes and I thought we were going to set a new record.  However the priest did sing a bit so that kept us from the record.

Tomorrow we are probably going to the Natural History Museum and the Science Museum.  Or we may go shopping for that book on the Blue Plaques that I mentioned earlier.  But plans may change depending on when we get up and get out.
