Exploring London!

Connor and I have had a blast running around London!

Westminster Abbey

We visited Westminster Abbey, but taking pictures wasn't allowed. It was really cool to see all of the amazing people that were buried there, and we also stayed for the evening prayer service. So if you've read other things I've posted, you know I overuse exclamation points and synonyms of "awesome" but for once I was actually pretty disappointed. I was wicked excited to see the abbey and it was unbelievably beautiful, but it was dark, crowded, and extremely overpriced. It cost us $60 to go to church! They also had handheld audio guides to use for a self guided tour and it sucked! Very few fun facts and just overall boring.

Connor and I are becoming pros at finding free museums, like the National Gallery

The Skiff (La Yole) 1875 Renoir

The Water-Lily Pond 1899 Monet

The Virgin and Child with Saints 1476
the high altarpiece for the church of San Domenico

The Virgin and Child with Saint Anne and Saint John the Baptist (1500) Leonardo da Vinci

We also walked through some of the parks and gardens near by as well.
