Hampton Court Palace

Yesterday, Bre and I spent another day sightseeing together.  We took a train to Hampton Court Palace and spent most of the day exploring the home of King Henry VIII.  They had actors walking around playing Henry and his wife Katherine and other important people.  The best part was that there were some Sir Christopher Wren alterations to the palace.  Just another one of his buildings to add to my list.  After the palace we headed to Kensington Park and saw the Albert memorial and the Royal Albert Hall.  From there we walked to Harrods and looked around the entire store.  Just another lovely day in London with Bre!
