fake snow
On our way to Tate Modern on Sunday, we walked through the Southbank Frost Fair. 400+ years ago Londoners partied on ice, the frozen Thames, but today locals had to settle for a tacky bankside carnival, with a fake snow slide--I wouldn't even call it a thrilling ride, but the poor parents still had to queue up to satisfy their noisy children. To imagine yourself in a winter wonderland, the piles of white blocks at the Turbine Hall is also a good place to be.
