The Latvia is experiencing a period of economic crisis rather delicate. To restore morale to Latvia, a "week of blondes" was organized in the country. Hundreds of Latvian golden-haired therefore marched through the capital Riga, dressed in white and pink, with T-shirts printed "Go Blonde".
I just returned from a 4 day trip to London. I'll take the opportunity to share my impressions of the museum Madame Thussaud, which seems to have become a must-see attraction of the English capital.
I'll start with the negatives, because that is where you will start your probably also visit:
- Waiting time. A Monday of February, arriving at 10am, he has certainly had one hour to arrive at the checkout. The queue is organized as in amusement parks: a kind of labyrinth, which hides miles of mysterious ways that one must pass to get from one end to another. Those who arrived after we have certainly waited much longer, the line extending much further when we had taken the first step.
- The price. £ 25 for one entry. While virtually every other city museums are free, it hurts the wallet!
Once these surprises behind us, the visit was at least entertaining. The museum is divided into several rooms, each with a theme particularly well. In order, you will find the rooms:
"Opening Night": The movie stars, fashion and some of the song. You can put alongside Cameron Diaz, George Clooney, Johnny Depp, Mel Gibson, Julia Roberts, Will Smith, Jennifer Aniston, the couple Brad Pitt & Angelina Jolie, Drew Barrymore, Beyonce, Jennifer Lopez, Madonna, Samuel L. Jackson, Nicolas Cage, Colin Farrell and more ... If you do not want to spend a clown on your photos, it is best to come well dressed: the stars are all in evening dress.
Room mixed with some familiar faces from Hollywood blockbusters to: Spiderman, Hulk, Shrek, Terminator, among others, but also the three biggest stars of Bollywood: Shah Rukh Khan, Aishwarya Rai and Amitabh Bachchan. At the back of the room, a staircase where you will meet Hitchcock takes you to the next room.
The third room is dedicated to the sport's most famous in recent years. Are present including the rugby player Jonah Lomu, David Beckham and boxer Muhammad Ali.
Following on from this room, a corner where there are some scientists (Albert Einstein), then some special music. In a sofa, the Beatles were a happy pose. Facing them is a scene with Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera. It even has the right to a dance show! 3 blondes young dancers in the flesh, came on stage and danced a few songs. Entertaining, you have to have good timing!
Then you leave this room to the right to enter the hall dedicated to political figures. Funny thing, all these statues are placed on the elevating slabs several inches over visitors.
The hall of horror and the history of London. I leave with you surprised to discover these attractions, which have a good time.
A special room 007.
The historical museum Madame Thussaud. For the curious, this room presents methods for confections of wax effigies.
The classic souvenir shop.
In conclusion, we must see this museum as a small amusement park: he must be patient, it's expensive, but it's fun. And I must admit that when we take a picture may seem like a near Cameron Diaz ...
