London Calling: The Discovery Section: V&A Edition

"What adventures did you have today Megan??" Well folks! I visited Portebello Road. It's a market with lots of shops, good food, street performers, and antiques! A great way to spend the morning, afterwards I ventured to the Victoria & Albert Museum. Many people recommended this museum to me! And I LOVED IT!!! Perhaps for different reasons though...

At the market with Becca!!!

I'm a kid at heart. Always have been, always will be. I don't know what it is, but I love a good kids "Discovery Area". And guess what! They V&A Museum had a kickin' one! Before my Discovery section however, I started my journey just looking at their time period clothing and some of their exhibits concerning Victorian Era living. I found it all very fascinating!

Then I found the dress up section... and it went downhill from there.

You are NEVER too old for dress ups :)

I also learned how to build a chair. Basically it was a Victorian style glorified version of IKEA. And yet it seemed like much more fun than assembling a desk for school!

Oh, I forgot that I hate assembling things...

Em and I trying to figure the darn thing out!

BOOM! It just took me FOREVER. No big deal.

Next they had these AMAZING chairs that supposedly defy gravity. Well. I found a way to prove that was a false statement! They are these spiny chairs, and you can practically be horizontal in them (if that makes any sense) without falling out. Little did they realize I can find a way through any loophole. Aka.... I fell. Everyone stared and looked at me.... a little embarrassing. But I just laughed it off. Here is a pictured tale of my accident. Lucky for me, Jace was documenting all of this.
