After Andrea did the food shopping this morning, she said we were going on a mini expedition!!!
And the first stop was Hove Museum and Art gallery...... oh hang on, what's that??!
We've got a Book Bench sculpture trail!!!
We haven't done one of these for AGES!!!
A Seat For Friends, this one is.
It's rather fancy isn't it?!!?
Bit of a giggle!
Then we had to walk along to George Street - there was a couple of people sitting on this one but we asked them politely to bugger off so we could get pictures. They didn't seem to mind...... much......
We forgot to take a picture of the info bit for this one....
But it's rather fun though!!!
Very rainbow-y!
They we went along to Hove Town Hall..... I love this one!!!!
It's got a Mouse on it!!!! I think that's Navy Mouse.....
The Sussex Sidhe at Shadowhall...... hmm.
Oh hang on, there's a little notice down there....
It's got an alligator on it!!!
Oh what fun!!! There's even dinosaurs on it!!
And a Fox and a squirrel!!!!!
Isn't that fab?!?! I love this one!
Then we walked along to First Avenue.... oh I think I know this one!!!
It's Alice in Wonderland!!!
Oh this is fun!
Here's the tea party!!
There's the other side..... apparently there's another bench inside the building that this one is outside of.
There it is!!
Oh it's a cartoon one!!
Shame we can't see the back of it though.....
We did a bit more shopping on the way home and spotted another mouse in another window!!
Apparently there's 32 of these, according to the map we printed off. We'll have to hunt down the other ones now.....!!
Our train was already there so we got on AND we have a window seat!!
And we're off!!
There's Millwall football pitch.....
And then we got off at London Bridge!!! We're getting the Jubilee Line now!
And had to change here!
And then finally got off here!
We left a bookcrossing book on one of the benches before we headed off....
And we finally made it here! We're going shamanic drumming today!
Today we used the bear skin..... we took turns in getting wrapped up in it and gave gratitude for things that have happened, good as well as bad, while everyone else drummed. After that, we took turns with the pipe, we had to hold it in a particular way, and ask out loud for what we needed to help with what's to come. After lunch we did some healing. It was a terrific day..... even better when one lady bought a painting from Andrea!!!! Yippee!!!!!
After we all packed up, we headed back to the underground station.
We went a different way back though, changing at Liverpool Street!!!
And then got off here ...... I know where we are now!!
Yeah, we usually walk past the top of these stairs, because we usually take the bus here!!
We had to pop in here quickly because we're getting short on coffee supplies. (we'll show you later!)
Then we walked past the turquouise bee hive
Then went down to the platform. We had to wait a bit for our train though
But it turned up on time and we got a window seat again!
Then we came through Blackfriars Station (but we didn't get off!)
There's the Shard over there!
Then we went towards London Bridge Station.....
And then we snoozed all the way home because we're tired!
And we're here!
We hopped on a bus back to here, and then it was just a short walk home. And we met a lovely Golden Retriever dog who insisted on stopping to say hallo!!! He was lovely!!
We decided to try a different coffee this time - the After Dinner blend. We normally get the Piccadilly blend or Kings blend.
Beanie Mouse lives in the south of England and has been painting and creating artworks for many years. Some will be "lost" somewhere on the planet, some will be mailed out and on the Emporium blog, reviews are given on various stuff! Beanie also travels and blogs about that on the Beanie Mouse blog.
