British Museum

I had quite an exciting day last Tuesday! With the youngest student I went to the British Museum in London, to look at the Egyptian display. We are working our way through a book called Omnibus, it's very good, but hard work... At the moment the book we are dealing with is Exodus, so I decided that after all that hard work we needed to have something extra special... So we got the coach to London, and spent the day looking at mummies etc...


It was actually very good, I learned a lot. The stuff they have is amazing, and to think it is all very old... The sad thing was that there was no mention of the True and Living God. I actually pointed out one board-thingy where is said that the sad thing about the missionaries coming to a certain place was that they lost their faith in ancestors etc... Quite typical to describe people in that way, who have come to faith, and have found peace with God, but that is the way things are at the moment! Apart from that, we really enjoyed the day, and I'm looking forward to the next Omnibus lesson where we carry on looking at Exodus!


The journey back was a bit tiresome, trying to get out of London, but never mind, we got back save and sound, and that is the main thing!

I'm sure we'll go again, as we will be dealing with other ancient civilizations as well...
