We had a really busy and exciting day starting with visiting the Churchill Museum and Cabinet War Rooms. Seeing the actual war rooms and bunkers that were used during WWII was an eye-opening experience. Also, exploring the museum and discovering interesting facts about the late great Winston Churchill was fun too. Danielle, who did her research paper on Churchill, was our little tour-guide through the museum.
Our favorite Churchill quote had to be "I have a tendency against which I should, perhaps, be on my guard, to swim against the stream". What can I say, you have to love the man for daring to be different. After the museum we headed over to Westminster Abbey.
We spent about an hour walking through the beautiful church and admiring the Gothic architecture, the stained glass windows, and the numerous burial sites and memorials. Finally, we ended the day by spending some time in the House of Parliament and taking pictures with the one and only Big Ben! As always, cheerio!
