Today the whole crew went to Hampton Court, the English palace of Henry the VIII meant to rival Versailles. Throughout the palace grounds there were tour guides, dressed in period clothing, that would give information on various parts of the palace. It was a great opportunity for us all to sketch and take in several periods of architecture.

This is the famous Rose Window of the Abbey, gorgeous stained glass! All of the coronations of the Royal Family have been held in this abbey. More recently, Princess Diana's funeral service was held here. Also, many previous Kings and Queen are buried here.
