Today we toured around Westminister Abbey! It was a BEAUTIFUL building both on the interior and exterior. I felt like I was in a Harry Potter scene in the hallways due to the design with the open windows to the courtyard. It was felt unreal to be literally standing at where famous people were buried, like Darwin and the Bronte sisters. It’s interesting that Darwin and his wife were buried separately, and even more interesting that he was buried in a cathedral which was controversial with his works on evolution. We toured the Royal Society in the afternoon, and I found it most interesting to look at the physical pages of writings from that famous scientists at some of the very first Royal Society meetings.
We went to Gopal’s of Soho for dinner, where I got matar paneer! Emily and I then went to see the play Mousetrap, which apparently is the longest running show in London’s version of Broadway. I had never heard of the play before, it was a murder mystery and I ended up loving it!
