Alice in Wonderland Exhibition & Cafe

Back in April me & 3 of my friends visited the Alice in Wonderland Exhibition at the British Library in London

Walking to the British Library

This was a free exhibition held from  - 
Here is a link of the event information

As we walked into the library there where signs advertising the Exhibition with this 1 catching my eye & pointing us in the right direction.



Unfortunately we weren't allowed to film & take pictures of the Exhibition but before we went in there was a little trail & quirky puzzles for us to follow and read.  































The 1st picture 
shows Alice following the White Rabbit down the Rabbit hole

It reads: 
On a warm summers day Alice is sitting
on the Riverbank with her sister
when she sees a white rabbit
in a waist coat rush past
and decides to follow him

The 2nd picture  


It reads:
Alice follows the
white rabbit down into
a rabbit hole. The rabbit
hole is deep and contains
bookshelves,cupboards and
even a jar of marmalade.

The 3rd picture


It reads:
In a corridor at the
bottom of the rabbit hole
Alice finds a glass table
and a bottle labelled
"Drink Me". When she
drinks from it Alice
begins to shrink





The 5th picture





The 6th picture


It reads:
Alice meets a Caterpillar
smoking a hookah when she
eats a piece of the Caterpillars
mushroom she changes size
again. Her neck grows
so long that her head
is soon in the clouds.

As I don`t drink tea they let me have milk instead



Two of my friends had hot chocolate



And here is a picture of our canapé


After having the yummy Canapé 
I had a piece of Red velvet chocolate

It was very moist 

It was a really lovely day out with my friends &
 I enjoyed walking around the exhibition learning more
about Alice in Wonderland.
