#ThrowbackThursday - 22 years ago last Spring... The text is my 1st time visiting #WestminsterAbbey - a bright spring day unlike the rainy scene I depicted but it reminded me of this visit. Next week would be my grandmother's 116th birthday.

Digital artwork showing the tall front facade of a gothic church - Westminster Abbey. It's raining at night and the street in front is wet and reflecting the illuminated architecture and the sky. A little sliver of the clock tower commonly known as Big Ben is visible beyond the trees to the left.

Afterwards, I went back to the hotel and dropped off my purchases and then headed off on foot to Baker Street to start my hop-on-hop-off bus tour of the city. Was a lot of fun. I definitely see why people often do this on their first day. I had a far better understanding of the central city afterwards. I took plenty of probably bad pictures (motion, bus railings in the way, etc.), and I got a nice sun-burn on my head that’s evolving into a decent tan now. When the bus got near Parliament, I hopped off to take the included river tour of the Thames. That was way more fun than I had expected. It was perfect weather for wandering down the Thames and seeing the sights from there. That took about an hour and I walked from the docks at Westminster pier to Westminster Abbey and took my tour. There was unfortunately no Verger led tours on Saturday, so I had to do an audio tour. Again, the audio tour worked well and I enjoyed it.
