April, 2010


Ana and i went to the the Victoria and Albert museum to see their display of Princess Grace Kelly's dresses during her time.

Sadly,we couldnt take photos inside the exhibition but we could take photos of the other parts of the museum. Strict sila. Its such a bummer especially when you paid for the ticket to see the exhibit but then you cant take photos, boohoo.





some artefacts from the Ming dynasty





artefacts from the Aviso dynasty,hehe (the sis, Ana) and ancient China





statues from Asia





L:the sister who is my idol. she is so loved by me adored by her Ate's and Kuya's. she's very talented too.

R: the expanse of the solarium in V&A






China, the middle kingdom.





Ana, reviewing her photos. She and i love our museum treks. We are museum-fanatics.




L: some beautiful design on the wall. the V& A is world reknowned for their changing and rotational displays.

R: the ceiling when you come in




i am not sure what this was now. but it sure did capture alot of people's attention





the grand foyer

afterwards, an ice cream and some mini retail therapy at Fortnum and Mason




afterwards, we rushed for the tube to head to the Photographer's Gallery (another entry)..
