“Forget the royal wedding. Tate Modern makes me proud to be British”, – anonymous comments in the gallery

Ok, I wanted to write about nurseries.  Then there arrived this worrying paper in the mail about television license and – arising from it – the absurd for me «love for television in Britain – issue».

But I can’t write about this today.

Because I went to Tate Modern.

It’s great. It’s free.  Everyone probably knows it.  But it IS great,  and surprisingly, it is also an extemely nice place in London to go with a toddler.

I won’t pretend to be an expert on art,  but I did love some of the works there.  But it’s not just that.  It is not a museum, it’s full of life.  Children running around and sitting everywhere in the huge hall.

Suddenly a small room where a movie is shown.

Espresso bar (my favorite spot!) where you can create a cartoon that immediately goes online as your own art.  Perhaps one of the best views in London, too.

My advice — go, bring the kids (if any),  and if someone from  GB is reading my blog — thank you for Tate Modern.
