Walking in South Kensington

Yesterday evening I worked in the Science museum for a leukemia research gala.

I got out of the underground in South Kensington and just around the corner, there is my favourite cheese shop La Cave a Fromage. Already the window display shows the amazing range of cheeses offered. When entering the shop, the room is filled with wonderful smells of cheese and bread. It is definitely worth a visit.

Later I walked along exhibition road, when suddenly the Natural History museum was to my left, all lit up in red colours and beautiful trees with little white lights. In the corner of the museum is an ice rink which is open until the 17th of January from 08:45 until 22:00 on weekends and from 10:00 until 22:00 during the week.

Ticket prices are:

• Children (12 and under): £8.50 peak / £8 off-peak
• Adults: £13 peak / £11.50 off-peak
• Family ticket (2 adults and 2 children or 1 adult and 3 children): £34.50 peak / £31 off-peak
• Concessions: £10.50 off-peak only

Although I find the tickets a bit expensive, I will want to ice- scating as soon as possible.
