Mummers, Maypoles and Milkmaids

The exhibition is amazing!

 The Horniman museum is like a smaller copy of the Natural History museum with all the stuffed animals right near the entrance. The kids as well :) It is lots of fun, if you like that sort of thing.

The exhibition itself was showing the modern traditions and celebrations in Britain. The funniest thing is that almost every picture was set in such a way as to have something incredibly common to the mundane monotonicity of our present lives and yet have some really archaic ritual or celebration happening right there, next to it.

Amazing. Definitely worth a visit.
