Free Entertainment in London...

We spent Saturday morning doing one of our favorite activities in London: mudrucking (also known as mudlarking) along the shores of the Thames during low tide.

This year we searched along both shores for the first time. Jimmy and Ashlynn had especially good fortune along the northern shore where they found a lot of pipes with intact bowls and at least partial stems.

Here are the girls displaying the stash of pipes, broken pottery bits (some possibly as old as the 17th century) and glass that we found. While we’ve never found anything of monetary value, these bits are worth a lot to us as a family.
