Day 17 Tower of London Aug. 14, 2010


As soon as we arrived in London on our flight from Munich, we dropped our bags and were off to see the town! Here we are by the Tower Bridge, which spans the Thames River next to the Tower of London.



Famous for the Crown Jewels and the Beef- eaters, the Tower of London is a must- see when you go. As you can tell by the picture, the line to see the jewels is long, but of course we went anyway.







The oldest part is the White Tower, which was built by William the Conquerer, a French invader who crossed the Channel a thousand years ago in 1068. That's it above.




London theatre (notice the British spelling) is the best in the world, and it's cheap. When you throw in the easy availability of half- price tickets, and you see why it's THE place to see great shows! That night we got cheap tix for Love Never Dies, which is the sequel to Phantom of the Opera.




Here's my attempt at an artistically framed shot of Tower Bridge.
