Sunday - Madame Tussauds, Science Museum, Natural History Museum & The London Dungeon

Madame Tussauds
I can't say that i'm really in Madame Tussaud's target audience so I will skip through the boring bits and say that the best bit was Scream. (The London Dungeon like walkthrough maze with scary actors)

Science Museum
What can I say, you can walk round this museum for hours, best bit has to be Launch Pad (interactive exhibits).

Natural History Museum
What can I say, you can walk round this museum for hours, best bit has to be the Dinosaur skeleton in the main hall.

The London Dungeon
No queue!!! very good although they seem to repeat actors between areas which detracts from the feel (The Judge was also the ride op for both rides) unlike in the summer holidays when they have enough actors/hosts.

Running is something i find quite difficult (stumpy legs) and I can;t see why people would want to do it voluntarily.

Congratulations on the run.

I find it quite useful when being chased!

Congrats! I can barely run across a train station without stopping to catch my breath.
