5 March 1999 Saving the Best for Last

Since this is my last day in London, I had to see and visit Kensington Palace. This was Diana's home while in London. As I walked up to the gates, they were closed with a sign pointing visitors to go around to the back of the palace. I noticed someone had laid flowers inside the gate, possibly in memory of Diana. It was an escorted tour through the dress collection and the rest of the rooms your on your own. I was not allowed to photograph inside, no video either. It was a nice place and a good location.
Kensington Park sits beside the palace, it's a regal setting of calm and solitude in a busy city. After visiting, I headed back to the hotel to check out. Once again, taking the Tube back to Euston Train Station to catch the train back to Coventry.

It is so easy to get around.  Tube, Trains, Bus, Taxi.  I've used all 4 methods of transportation in this city.  I love the Tube and Trains which we do not have much access to back home.
