Revisiting Ancient Greece and Egypt at the British Museum

We've been trying to save money since neither of us has a job at the moment, it's slightly disconcerting to be unemployed with no income coming in. But we've only been here a few weeks, so we're not too desperate yet.

So we've been trying to go places that are cheap, or don't cost much money. Since Museums are free in London, we've been working our way through all the different ones.

The British Museum is humungous, at any given time they can only display about 5,000 items, and all the rest just sits in storage. Their main exhibits are Greek, British and Egyptian history. I found the Greek displays the most impressive, they have these massive statues and buildings all inside the museum, it's crazy. There are just rooms and rooms full of Greek artifacts.
