Westminster Abbey, etc.

I did a lot this day...  First we went to Westminster Abbey.  Then we went to Whitehall Banqueting House, but it was closed for "touring" due to a concert.  So then we went to the National Portrait Gallery and went BACK to Whitehall when it finally reopened...  Sometime during all that, we were at Trafalgar Square... whew!

 

Well, Big Ben is right across from Westminster Abbey, so...

 

This was taken right outside the gate to Westminster.  I kinda liked that the traffic light got in the way, because I think it gives a better feel of London... lots going on in this pic (that's Big Ben with the London Eye in the background), with both modern and older looks...

Tada!  Westminster Abbey!

 

::shudders and wails:: Noooooooooooooo!!!  Not another picture of me!!!! ::sigh::  Well, that's me in front of Westminster Abbey...

 

A fountain at Trafalgar Square... with people dipping their feet in... soooooooooooooo tempting on a hot day!!!!  (YES, it actually got HOT in London...  Ok ok ok, it's nothing compared to the crud we're getting here now... Ugh!)

 

A statue at Trafalgar Square...  Nope, sorry, don't know who it is...
