On Sunday, we walked around Westminster, the heart of tourist London and probably very familiar to anyone with a passport. You would think that would dissuade me from babbling on about these overly familiar landmarks, and you'd be right. For example, this is Parliament and Big Ben, which as you all know sits atop Parliament. There are many centuries of history on this site, which started out as part of the main royal palace but was rebuilt several times after fires, with this majestic faux-old building housing Parliament for the last couple of centuries. Lots of weird and wonderful things happen all over London's ancient sights, but talking about them at length would take the focus of us, which would be a shame. So you'll have to google up the history stuff, because the spotlight will stay relentlessly on Bromchai (like Brangelina, get it?). But since Sunday was also the only sunny day on the whole trip, there will be lots of photos about this area coming up.
