This is my third post on our studies of Ancient Mesopotamia three years ago. In this post I will be sharing photos of our Mesopotamia night with lots of Mesopotamia food, as well as our visit to the British Museum in London.

Field Trip
At the end of our studies we try to go on some sort of field trip. As Mesopotamia, by its very geography, is out of reach for us, we traveled up to the British Museum in London:
Mesopotamia Food
Then we had an evening of trying out lots of food from Mesopotamia. The children, of course, had to dress up and play their part as Mesopotamia people:
Lots of unusual food:
Next week I’ll be sharing some photos from their Mesopotamia presentation.
To have all the museums in your area available would be so wonderful. I love your feast and the way you get dressed up for it. We have only done that once with our Medieval feast. It was so much fun.
When we lived in Ireland we missed being so close to London because there is always something to see linked with whatever we are studying.
I love their robes for the dinner!
I went to London for my honeymoon and we spent half our time in the British Museum!
Now, that’s MY kind of honeymoon!!
Glad I didn’t know that 15 years ago!!! Ha ha!
wow…that is amazing!!!…how do you do all this guys?…loved the food…loved the costumes and love having a sneak peak at a much loved family.
