Day 23 Pictures

Everyone loves Abraham Lincoln, especially the Brits, who've got his statue in the same vicinity as Winston Churchill's, Richard the Lionheart's, and all the Edwards'.

The outside of the Abbey.

The stonework over the main entrance into the Abbey, which is crazy detailed.

The 'amazing' memorial to the British civil services in India I mentioned.

The chancel of the Abbey, which is where the monks would come together to debate and discuss. Unfortunately the glass isn't original; a lot of it was blown apart in the Blitz.

  1. Good ole honest Abe. Hmm weren't the masons responsible for the masonry of the Abby? hmm I saw a conspiracy video or three about their stonework. Really good stuff, and symbolic.
