Kensington, things to do?

[bitchstewie]

I'm in London tomorrow around Olympia, train in/out is from Euston.

I'll probably have a couple of hours to kill so wondered if there's anything especially useful around Olympia?

Not sure it's long enough to take too much of a detour and I may just take a lazy walk back towards Euston.

London Design Museum is a 10 minute walk from Olympia

One of my favourite places to kill a couple of hours

Thanks, kind of the no-brainer one I guess.

Suspect that and walk up through the park and I'm set

Science Museum. Just sit and look at the Apollo 10 command module and consider that three blokes spent eight days in it, travelling almost 500,000 miles to the moon and back in 1969.

Kensington to Euston is a decent walk, but certainly do-able. Probably about 5 miles. I'd head north to Hyde Park, diagonally across it to Marble Arch, East down Oxford St, keep going towards Holborn and then turn left up towards Euston. A nice trot thru Central London.

This, but be careful if you venture further into the museum. I visited it a few years ago, went in about 10:30 in daylight, came out at 4:30 in darkness! Intended to spend a couple of hours in there, but there's absolutely tons to see so it's easy to lose track of time.
