The Tower of London as seen from the side.
When I left my flat today, I had no clue where I would end up. By the time I got to Waterloo station, I had decided the tower would be a neat place to go.
You can still see sections of the original Roman walls. I do have to say that the Roman did know how to build things. 2000 years and still standing!
The Crown Jewels were pretty cool. But I do have to say that many of the crown's looked like. All except Queen Victoria's small diamond crown. It was beautiful. Dainty and sparkly.
The on tower green, there is a really cool memorial to all the people who died in the tower. Everyone was calling it the "Queen's Pillow." The memorial is a glass disc with a crystal "pillow" in the center. The pillow is dimpled, as if it was holding something. It seemed a fitting memorial for the spot where the scaffolds once stood and so many people died.
