Palaces and The Sahara

The next palace was the Palace of Westminster where I learnt for the first time ever that Westminster Abbey is in a different building to Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament...oops! I took pictures, though, of the outside of the Palace of Westminster, does that still count?

My actual ticket was for Westminster Abbey, which is across the road, and I'm glad I didn't know that before coming here because I don't think I would have made time to go to "just a church" (see previous comments about smiting). It wasn't until I was in there that I thought "oooohhhh, this is where Diana got married, and the recent coronation of her cheating husband took place". Yeah, I don't pay too much attention to England and the royals.

Hey @n7of9 I may have messed up my Cathedral and religions but though I do know my weddings - Diana married Charles at St Paul's and funeral was at Westminster 🤭
