Parliament and Big Ben


Another view of Big Ben

Our final stop of the day was to Parliament. There are two branches of Parliament: the House of Lords and the House of Commons. Not only did we pass by Big Ben and the magnificent Parliment building, but were also allowed inside. After a brief wait in the rain, we were able to go in and see a portion of the House of Commons Parliamentary meeting be held. Once we had finished this expedition, around 3:30 PM, everyone was allowed to go off on their own and explore London, go shopping, or even head back to Regent's College and their room for a nap.
