It was 17th Jan 2010,a sunny day after a rainy day.The Wembley market is opened in the first half of the Sunday only.So after having breakfast we all started for Wembley Market.It was a huge market with all the daily needs,clothings,electronical appliances,accessories of ladies and gents along with kids.Bags,toys are also available there.It was a bargain market.Not all ,but few things you can bargain.I bought 2 bags of GUCCI brand and a jumper for Rick.After doing some shopping we came back home and had lunch from Sam's Chicken.We took the bus83 from Brent town hall to Alperton station,then we catch the train of piccadilly line towards Cockfosters and got down at South Kensington for the museums.There are three museums (The Natural History Museum,Science Museum and Victoria Albert Museum)whose nearest station is South Kensington.First we moved towards The Natural History Museum,its building is very old but very nice.Near to the museum ice-skating center was there.Small children with their parents also doing ice-skating.It was nice to watch them.The entrance to the museums in London are free of cost.When we entered into the museum there was a huge Dinosaur skeleton structure.There were history of Human being,the natural stones,the largest tree in the world whose cross-section of trunk was displayed.The father of evolution"Charles Darwin" his statues was also there.The man who introduced tea in India was Joseph Banks.In Vault section we got to see the real Diamond n its natural condition.There was a great collection of diamonds white and coloured too.These diamonds shine too much even in the dark.We saw the gold form in nature.It is like powder sticked to the soil and stone.There is lot to see n describe.There is a section of Dinosaur where one can see the different parts and anatomy of Dinosaur.
After completing the History museum we moved towards Science museum as its last entrance time was 4.30pm.Its opened till 6.00pm.We entered there around 3.50pm.There was science of mechanisms like satellite,steam engines,staircase parking of cars,history of wheels,a giant wheel ever made by a tyre Company,bicycles,scooters like lamby,aeroplanes,helicopters,jet planes etc.In ground floor museum shop,imax 3d theatre was there with some games.In first floor "who am I" section was there which was closed due to maintenance.In second floor the Planes,helicopters are there which were used by the Britishers before in the time of wars.One can go n sit inside the planes.In the third floor a gaming section was there.Game can be played by maximum 8 people by a moving wheel.It was superb to play.We played for half an hour.Rick was very excited to see his favourite things over there.He was not interested to come out from museum.After coming out from the museum we started for home as we all are tired now.We went to South Kensington station,had some snacks and coffee,then catch train of Piccadilly line and got down at Alperton. Then by bus 83 we reached our home,Wembley Park.It was a very tiring day for all of us
