"Certainly, travel is more than the seeing of sights; it is a change that goes on, deep and permanent, in the ideas of living." - Mary Ritter Beard _ Walking the halls of Westminster Abbey in London, UK. _ When we visited in 2014 I was a bit disappointed at the restrictions on photography inside the building. But found these unattended hallways around a courtyard and couldn't resist a snap. _ This historic church as built in 960AD (and rebuilt in 1517). It's been the location of royal coronations and burials for over 1000 years. Although since 1560 this place is no longer technically an abbey or cathedral, but instead a "Royal Peculiar" - a church responsible directly to the sovereign. _ News: I've put together a new page on travelwithbender.com containing all the info about our epic 1-year #motherofallroadtrips around the US & Canada in 1 spot.
