26th Wednesday

We went to The British Museum. It was really big and built like a maze, and had a lot of statues and old artifacts from various countries in it. Snorri and I weren't as interested in the museum as everyone else so we walked around while they looked at all the exhibits. After a while Roxy, Snorri, and I went to a convenience store and bought ginger cookies/biscuits and drinks, while the others continued to look around the museum. I bought a lemon-lime water drink that wasn't carbonated, and the others bought various things, and then we returned to the steps of the museum. They were shooting a movie on the steps of the museum, all the actors were Indian and one of the staff(?) was holding something like a really long mop. There was a lady in a business suit who walked up some of the steps and then turned around to talk to a man, but I couldn't hear anything they said even though they were fairly close.

Erin, Snorri, and I went to Piccadilly to wait for Aino, who I met last year in Iceland as well, (Aino is from and lives in Finland). According to a friend, the statue in the middle of Piccadilly is the god Eros and this place used to be a meeting place for lovers. There are a lot of French tourist groups and classes that go on field trips to the museums. There was one at the museum and there was one at Piccadilly too, and I've also been seeing lots of English classes with students in uniforms at all the museums.
