Tower of London, part 1

 Tower of London was one of our favorite things that we did. We spent 4 or so hours touring it and listening to every part of the audio tour.

 This is where the Crown Jewels are kept. Of course we couldn't take pictures, in fact someone did and security was all over him. I couldn't believe all the jewels and how big they were.

 Here you see the London Bridge in the back.

 Here is a view of the grounds.

 They also had a changing of the guards. (It was better to watch.) The men that gave the tours and ran the place were called Yeomen Warders or Beefeaters. These men are the ones who look after the jewels and back in the day look after the prisoners. They actually live there with their families.

These were the biggest ravens I had ever seen and they are very well looked after. It is believed if the ravens ever die then the tower and monarchy will die also.
