Settings: First battle; Stret of Verona vs Petrol Station
In the film we can saw that the first fight betwen capulets and montagues is in a Petrol station and the Police don't stop the battle.
But in the book we saw that the fight is in Verona's streets and the Prince stop it.
Another part is that the arms are not the same, in the book they have swords but in the film they have guns.
In the book there are not any explosions and fire and the fighters are the servents of the two families, Tybalt and Benvolio don't appear but in the film the Petrol station explodes ,Tybalt and Benvolio appear.

The British Museum
The British museum is the biggest and the most famous museum in the United Kingdom. With more than seven milion objects in, this peculiar museum is one of the oldest museums of the world.
It has different sections depending on the provenance of the valuable objects. I have been there two times and from my view the most interesting zone is the egypcian one. There are lots of mummies with a perfect conservation. Like all the museum under the objects are a small description of the object. It was very interesting read the explication of the Tutankamon's mummy.
Another spectacular zone is the Roman Empire. Here you can see variety of plates and pots doing with mud. There is also a part of one famous roman structure the Pantheon of Agripa.
If you go to London yo won't forget visit the british museum.
