Our return bus journey was scheduled for 4:30 this afternoon which meant we had almost an entire day to us for sightseeing. We devoted this time to Westminster Abbey and the Imperial War Museum.

One would think it was hard to be surprised by a tourist attraction as well known as Westminster Abbey, but never the less I was (even though I have seen it previously). It is simply a magnificent building. I was also surprised to learn that every English Monarch crowned since 1066 has been crowned in the Abbey.

As a note to other London tourists, we found the Travel Card which allows unlimited travel on the London Tube (underground) for a fixed price a great convenience. We paid GBP32 each for 7 days of unlimited travel.
