London Aquarium

This morning, my Mum and I went to the London Aquarium. It was huge with four floors of displays and two gigantic, 4-floor tall tanks in the middle.

There were lots of pretty anemones, fish which looked like plants and seahorses (my favourites).

The jellyfish were amazing. We stood mesmerised watching them swim as the lights changed colour.

There were also lots of adorable terrapins, alligators which sat so still they didn’t look real and sharks.

In the final part of the aquarium there were prehistoric looking fish, which were really scary and almost as big at the sharks. There was also a glass walkway so you could stand above the sharks and look down.

Afterwards we met up with my Dad and went for a bite to eat at the Museum of Gardening History, where they had a photograph of famous gardener’s hands.

We then headed over to Shad Thames, a new area of London we discovered recently.

They’ve turned the old dock buildings in to apartments and the connecting bridges in to balconies. It’d be so cool to live in one of them.

As a late birthday present, my uncle Bruce Morley sent us off to Manna, a vegetarian restaurant in Primrose Hill.

For starters, we shared some sweetcorn fritters and really tasty nachos. I really like vegan cashew cheese.

I then had a burrito while Tom had spaghetti and meatfree balls.

For dessert, I shared a banoffee trifle with my Mum. It was soooooo tasty!
