After our visit to the V&A Storehouse, we walked to the V&A East Museum, perhaps best thought of as the Museum's east London outpost, serving that 63% of greater London that is neither white nor of British descent.

| Scenery |
 |
| Wider view; the V&A East is the tan angular thing, middle right |
 |
| Among the Olympic stadia; note landscaping |

| Environs |

| Statue outside the museum |
 |
The collection is quite small and favors the contemporary and
immigrant |
 |
| Ever wonder what happened to Boris Johnson? |
 |
| Contemporary ballet costumes |
 |
| Thus |
 |
Cabinet organ, cabinet 1600s, organ 1700s...seemed completely out of place
|
 |
Having examined the very modest collection, we proceeded on, checking off yet another once-in-a-lifetime site...not particularly recommended, in our view, unless you have a lot of time in London or specifically relevant interests... |
