Westminster Abbey, dinosaurs and some more sites

Well Monday we visited Westminster Abbey. They call this place a church but it is more like a graveyard inside. It is the traditional corination place for Kings and Queens of England since William the Conqueror in 1066. Some of the more notiable people burried here are Elizabeth I, Mary I a.k.a "Bloody Mary", Mary Queen of Scots, Henry VII along with Sir Issac Newton and Charles Darwin. Like I said don't still here to long or you might have a coffin throw around you. Unfortunately again no pictures are allowed inside.


After leaving Westminster Abbey we decided to hit up the London version of Times Square, Piccadilly Circus. They also have a good buffet in america but I would not say it is a circus.
After walking around a while we hit up the Natural History Museum where we found some new pets to bring home with us.
BIG MAMMA was not happy that they were coming with us!

More rain today so we had to dodge in and out of the rain. We didn't have time today to ride the London eye but we did get some a shot of it right after the rain.
