first up the Tate Modern. (i didnt take this one...)
The museum is a defunct power station that has been turned into a home for modern art. Its right next to the Globe and directly off of the millennium bridge. 
You enter first into the turbine room, which is an immense space. A video instillation on a huge monolith by Tacita Dean was going in there. The pictures didn't turn out great.
\Monet Water Lillies One of the many Rothkos
"Waiting", Lucio Fontana
Do Ho Suh "Staircase III" (Made entirely of fabrick
Next was the Victoria And Albert Museum, Ancient to Classical art in various forms.
Da Vinci's Notebooks
Original print of a production of the Noh drama "Funa ben Kei", which I researched for my senior synth class.
These are from the national gallery at Trafalger Sq.
Bosch
"The Ugly Duchess" Massys
Caravaggio
Holbein the Younger "The Ambassadors"
Monet of course
Finally the Tate Britain. Sister gallery to Tate Modern, but with exclusively British Artists.
Its been a long while since i've taken time in a gallery, and i've never thoughtfully spent time with individual works. I've definitely been better appreciating my own aesthetic and interaction with art in all forms. I've loved the time i've spent quieting myself in these cathedrals imagery.
