Last week Saturday I went walkabout through London…well more specifically, through the City of Westminster, which is a city in it’s own right, albeit within the Greater London area. This city is chock-a-block with fabulous ‘things to see’. I have walked this route numerous times before and yet I always discover something new…..this was no exception.

and this marvellous item, which I simply cannot believe I never saw before….
the wheel of a Turkish gun
these two fabulous guns/cannons are to be found in the Horse Guards Parade. The following memorial is situated near St James’s Palace…..

I also had the greatest of luck and managed to visit the Cloisters of Westminster Abbey. There was some sort of ceremony going on so I just kinda walked in….. as I do. 🙂 There are some fabulous memorials scattered about, one of which is dedicated to Edmond Halley…….

and this for Capt James Cook, which I thought was expecially lovely….

No matter how much time you spend, or how often to walk about this fabulous city, there is always something new to discover.
