Thursday, June 27th: Westminster Abbey & Buckingham Palace

Thursday, June 27, 2019

Our very last week was filled with last sights we crammed in, and Westminster Abbey was a top priority of mine. As much as I loved St. Paul's Cathedral, Westminster was my favorite. It was stunning! Sadly, we weren't allowed to take pictures inside, so you'll just have to go see for yourself. I wonder if anyone has attempted to count the tombs - it was crammed!

Buckingham Palace - though the Palace wasn't open for the summer yet, we did make it to the front to see its splendor up close. We had a gorgeous sunny day to enjoy the stroll through the park coming and going from the Tube station, and I will definitely be coming back during the summer months when they have the Palace open to the public to see inside. The website has very informative 360 degree virtual room tours, however, to give you a taste of the inner beauty of the Queen's residence. I was told the flag we saw up was the one that meant she was at home!
