This year the Summer Exhibition 2019 at The Royal Academy of Art was coordinated by Jock McFayden RA. It is the world's largest open submission art show and this is its 251st year. We thought that it was excellent.
Thomas Houseago featured a variety of imposing sculptures in the courtyard.
We spent a while in Wohl Central Hall where there was lots to see and plenty of quirky ideas to think about and enjoy.
The Animal Room combined art with the quirkiness of a collector's private museum.
We always enjoy the beautiful architectural room as well as the displays here. We had been in the pavilion colourfully modelled in the background only the day before when in East Dulwich.

Kew Gardens is a lovely place to visit. We chose to focus on a few parts of the garden and couldn't miss the Chihuly glass sculptures which enhance the landscapes and glasshouses.
Stunning hydrangeas among the trees.
The treetop walkway is worth the climb for the close up views of the treetops and distant views of the Temperate House.
