DAY 5, morning: Westminster Abbey, Whitehall, and the National Gallery of Lond

Another packed day.  We scrambled to get in line for the Westminster Abbey tour and we made it without having to wait too long.  Another dose of history (no pictures allowed!)  We were fascinated by all the tombs, crypts, & monuments.  The ceilings were sky-high and magnificent.  The Lady Chapel at the east end was commissioned by Henry VII and it was a stand-out.  Every hour on the hour there is a quick prayer, and on the day we were there it was for Princess Charlotte, for all children and all families. You could have heard a pin drop! The peaceful gardens were open and we took our time as we enjoyed the pretty weather.  It's no wonder most of the monarchs are married there!
