Birmingham



Olive's first stay in a hotel, during a weekend away in Birmingham, to attend the wettest Christening in the whole wide world!!



While up in Brum we squeezed in a visit to the Red House Glass Cone which was super interesting especially if you're just a little bit arty - like me!

We got to look round the art gallery, an exhibition explaining the history of the glass made there and saw glass blowing in action as well as enjoying a very tasty lunch in the tea rooms too.



Even the net curtains at the 'cone' are made of glass! Truly amazing!! Love the fact that they look like they're blowing in the breeze but are in fact totally rigid.
