Victoria & Albert Museum, our last day in London

We still had a couple of things on our list to see on our last day. The Victoria & Albert Museum, then on to the National Gallery to see some Leonardo da Vinci, Rembrandt and Dutch painters. No photos can be taken in the National Gallery, but we did enjoy those paintings.



This is the Victoria & Albert Museum, a royal collection of all kinds of interesting art and design, over 4 million items!



These two are a stained glass works from Holland, 1550. We thought it would be very, very difficult to get quality glass craft work like this today.



This is a Spanish work of St George, dated about 1410.



Here is a wedding dress of about 1870, we thought Kelly might fit it.



We also dropped by Knightsbridge: Harrods and Hyde Park.

That's it for our London visit, off to Devon/Cornwall tomorrow and no 3G broadband!
