Westminster Abbey

London; Monday, June 26, 2006: I took a tour of Westminster Abbey through an outfit called London Walks, and it definitely gave me some perspective on the various historical information surrounding the building and its contents. With the tour, we entered directly into the cloisters, which is about the only place you're allowed to take a picture. (It is, after all, a working church, and only tolerates the tourists because it costs £10.00 to visit.) This is a picture of a memorial to Edmund Halley that's in the cloisters. Famous people buried in the Abbey itself include William Shakespeare, Isaac Newton, Charles Darwin, and Charles Dickens.
