We are Winding Down

Well, we are coming to the end of our trip. Friday we went to the British Museum and the National Gallery. The British Museum, with it's Egyptian, Greek and Roman treasures, was like traveling all around the world. Here is a tablet of hieroglyphics.



And a mummy's tomb.


We couldn't take pictures at the National Gallery, but we saw VanGogh's, Renoir's, Monet's, even a couple of Rembrandt's. Then we went down to Westminster Abbey and attended Evensong. We had hoped to hear the choir sing, but instead it was just a hand full of tourists doing the singing. Here's the Abbey.



Saturday, we went to see the home and chapel of John Wesley, the founder of Methodism. Here's the chapel from the outside.



And the inside.



Today is was Kew Gardens. Here's the Palm House.



There are statues of the animals from the Royal coats of arms outside the Palm House. Here's the griffin.



And finally a funky flower!



Tomorrow it's on to Windsor Castle and then we fly home on Tuesday.
