London- Tower of London

I really didn't want to schedule too many things because I prefer to not be held to a timetable when I'm traveling.  I never know how jetlagged we will be or if there will be other things we want to spend more time at.  Unfortunately there are some things you must book in advance or you don't get in.  So we hit the ground running with Tower of London first thing the first morning.  Tower of London is cool!  It's so old with so much history. It's actually a lot of buildings/towers but it started as a sort of lookout tower.  This is where Anne Boleyn was beheaded.  King Henry literally married Jane Seymour the next day.  Classy...

 

The Crown Jewels were the most interesting part but we aren't allowed to take any pictures of them.  They showed jewels and crowns and tiaras and all these ridiculous golden things for dinner tables I think but throughout the ages.  It was cool.  That's why there's guards on duty.

I don't even think we saw everything there was to see because we got anxious to get to Borough Market and get some food.  There was a lot!  Oh, we saw a fox.  Which was funny because who knew they actually run wild in the city?  You hear about fox hunting.  There were also some creepy ravens.
