The last Friday of every month The Natural History Museum hosts its ‘Museum Lates’ event. I have to give credit where credit is due to my Husband who actually found this gem of an idea for a date night.
Turns out most museums in London participate in this initiative to attract the grown ups and night owls of the city (see link below for details). There was a bar and tapas selection but I would recommend eating beforehand as the choices were limited and pricey. Most rooms were open including the popular Dinosaur exhibit and a sketching station.
There was a gratyfing sense of mellow and calm whilst wandering around the halls, which is normally drowned with throngs of school trips and parents running around after their children. This made room for us to stroll as if we were the kids once more, with mischief, intrigue and lots of Pimms!
-till the next experience
