Royal Albert Memorial Museum Exeter
Newly re-furbished at a cost of millions, the RAMM in Exeter. Jan 3rd 2012. Gerald the Giraffe is still there, but has been moved. The cafe is now where he used to be. The whole place is a bit of a mish mash now, the swamp with the croc and elephants has gone. But there are many new additions including an insect room and a bird room. If you have visited, what do you think of the renovations etc?

The wonderful faces of Exeter Museum
During a day out to the wonderful Exeter Museum, UK, which my 2 young children Izzy & Zahra, really enjoyed, I was very taken by all the masks and faces from all cultures and eras. While I didn't have full access to take really professional photos I think I got mostly good shots considering it was nearly all through glass.
The exhibitions were centred on several world cultures : Egyptian, Pacific, Asian and South & Central American.
The Royal Albert Memorial Museum (RAMM) is a real gem of British Museums. It's free to get in and the staff are very friendly. The displays take visitors on a voyage of discovery from pre-history to the present day and from Exeter all around the world. Exeter's Royal Albert Memorial Museum recently reopened to the public after a multi-million pound refurbishment with the galleries, facilities and services expected of a truly modern museum. As a result the Museum is proud to have been awarded the national title of Museum of the Year (Art Fund Prize 2012).

Exploring Exeter - The Great Cathedral
Tayla and i bought a train ticket to the city of Exeter yesterday! It was my first train ride in England and it was amazing! The country side was on one side and the ocean on the other! We visited The Royal Albert Memorial Museum and walked the busy main street of Exeter, then we came across the most beautiful building I've ever seen in my life... The Exeter Cathedral! It was just absolutely amazing and took my breathe away! We really enjoyed exploring the city of Exeter and i really recommend you visiting there if you are in the area!

The Royal Albert Memorial Museum, Home to a Million Thoughts: Camilla Hampshire at TEDxExeter
Camilla Hampshire has been Museums Manager at the Royal Albert Memorial Museum, Exeter, UK, since April 2001, and was the genesis of the recently completed £24 million capital development project. The refurbishment, extension and redisplay of the Museum led to it being named the UK Art Fund Prize 'Museum of the Year 2012′.
Camilla arrived in Exeter having just completed the Millennium Galleries in Sheffield, where she was the Project Coordinator for the Galleries & Museums Trust. She says it has been a huge professional privilege to work on two such significant projects.
Beginning her career as a sixteen year old volunteer, her first paid role after university was at Whitehaven Museum and Art Gallery, Cumbria, and subsequent curatorial roles have taken her the length and breadth of the country.
Camilla read History of Art at Cambridge and Postgraduate Museum & Art Gallery Studies at the University of Manchester.

Exeter is an ancient city on the River Exe in southwest England. Dating back to the Roman era, the Exeter City Walls surround its centre and Gothic Exeter Cathedral. Exeter Castle, a Norman landmark, overlooks leafy Northernhay and Rougemont Gardens. To their west, the Royal Albert Memorial Museum & Art Gallery (RAMM) displays fine art and costumes. The vaulted, medieval Underground Passages snake beneath the city.
Exeter lies within the county of Devon, of which it is the county town as well as the home of Devon County Council. Currently, the administrative area has the status of a non-metropolitan district and is therefore under the administration of the County Council (there was a plan to grant the city unitary authority status, although this was scrapped under the 2010 coalition government). The city is on the River Exe about 37 miles (60 km) northeast of Plymouth and 70 miles (110 km) southwest of Bristol.
Exeter was the most south-westerly Roman fortified settlement in Britain, although there is evidence a Cornish tribe existed in Exeter before the Roman invasion. Exeter became a religious centre during the Middle Ages and into the Tudor times: Exeter Cathedral, founded in the mid 11th century, became Anglican during the 16th-century English Reformation. During the late 19th century, Exeter became an affluent centre for the wool trade, although by the First World War the city was in decline. After the Second World War, much of the city centre was rebuilt and is now considered to be a centre for modern business and tourism in Devon and Cornwall.
The M5 motorway to Bristol and Exeter starts at Birmingham, and connects at Bristol with the M4 to London and South Wales. Exeter's main operator of local buses is Stagecoach South West, which operates most of the services in the city. Dartline is a minor operator in the City. Exeter is considered to be a rail hub within the south-west and is linked to most branch lines in Devon, including to Paignton, Exmouth, Barnstaple and Okehampton (by a special service). Exeter International Airport lies east of the city, and the local airline, previously called Jersey European and British European but now known as Flybe . The Exeter Canal also known as the Exeter Ship Canal was first completed in about 1566.
