The good weather continues so we make the most of it on Sunday. first off we visited the Churchill museum and War rooms. Another well presented story filled with personal accounts and rooms as they were left at the end of the war. The Churchill Museum was overwhelming with the amount of information available. A large touch table let you see what Churchill did nearly every day of his life!
From here we walked up to Buckingham House to see the changing of the Guard. Lots of tourists but still worth seeing.
Up the road then to the Royal Mews where the royal coaches are kept. The roads had barricades up ready for the opening of parliament where several of these coaches will be used.
We took in the view from the top of the Wellington Monument then on to the Royal Horse Guards Museum.
We finished day at the Jewel House near the Houses of Parliament. A new PB of 6 attractions!
We had left St Paul’s Cathedral until our last day in London and it didn’t disappoint. Highlight was going up to the Whispering Gallery under the dome and then the stone gallery. The mosaic ceilings and crypt history were also memorable.
We walked over the Millennium Bridge to our next attraction – HMS Belfast. Another audio tour explained what it was like to serve on this ship.
Our last stop was the Science Museum – best free London attraction in our opinion. But then we are both scientists at heart……
