    I know Andrea, I lived not far from them all as a kid. A day in each one is really the minimum to appreciate them properly. Stewy

    Thanks for the tour. I've not been to the IWM for some years - glad to see the museum has so many more items at display (they have also changed a lot the way of displaying them)
    Always found that eagle impressive! I'm sure they have hundreds of items more that are not in display. The "little boy" is also a very "historicaly interesting" item.
    I agree with you about the WWI exhibition - it's amazing. I remember when they opened it (it was then called the trench experience)
    One of the best militar museums
    Thanks for the pics

    You're welcome guys!
    I spent 6 hours there and it felt like minutes!! The previous day I was at the Natural History Museum! I try to see as many museums in England as possible since my field of studies is relevant!
    I'm 100% sure that the storage rooms of this and every other museum is where the real treasure is! I can only imagine the treasures of that museum! I will apply there to work next year!!!
    And sorry for the Willys jeep... It was not intented to get with the Holocaust pics...
