Greenwich Maritime Museum



After getting back to London from Toronto (more on that later), Laura and I were fighting to stay awake. With a nice day, and wanting to stay local, we wandered over to Greenwich and dropped in to the National Maritime Museum. We saw Nelson's uniform from Trafalgar, complete with bullet hole, and the stern of the HMS Implacable, which a great-great-grandfather of mine served on when she was a training ship. I was pretty dazed, but the wave tank and underwater exploration kit they had there was some really good museum interactivity. Also, there were scale models of ships, which makes my day most of the time.
