Hello Class-
London is brimming with cathedrals and museums. One of the most famous cathedrals is Westminster Abbey. The Abbey's history goes back over 1,000 years and the actual building as it stands today is more than 700 years old. There are seventeen queens and kings buried inside the Abbey (usually in fancy tombs). Today, Westminster Abbey still serves as a place of worship. Kings and queens are also crowned here. The crowning ceremony is called a coronation.
One of Alexa's favorite places in London so far is the Natural History Museum. This museum houses dozens of dinosaur skeletons and examples of species from all over the planet. Can you guess the dino standing near Alexa in this picture?
That's right! It's Triceratops!
A Triceratops? He sure looks huge.

Hi Alexa,
ReplyDeleteWe miss you in class! I am sure you are having a wonderful time. Your classmates thought you had grown because you look so tall in front of the Abbey. We will keep following your travels.
Love,
Mrs. Salazar
