So the crazy storm you all had back in NZ closed the runways at Auckland airport. This in turn has delayed our flight from Heathrow – which works in our favour as we had almost a whole other day out in London.
So we took a walk along the Thames back to The Palace of Westminster and popped in for a quick look around inside Westminster Abbey. We saw the tombs of King Henry III, King Henry V, King Edward the Confessor, Queens Elizabeth I, Queen Mary I, and the tomb of Mary Queen of Scotts amongst other numerous famous peeps from history.
We also were able to see the Coronation Chair and the Alter where every British monarch has been crowned since William the Conqueror in 1066 – fun fact right there!
We then decide to take another stroll past Buckingham Palace where we bumped into the Changing of the Guard. We were all very impressed with the parade, and the military band played a number of ABBA songs, which we thought hillarious.
We are now at the airport waiting for the plane, ready for the next leg of the journey xx Next instalment will be coming to you live from LA!
