Tower Bridge


London Bridge

It was wonderful time to take this picture when we get there after looking the tower of london. We took the tour of "Beefeaters" (nickname of Yeoman Warders) at the tower, sometimes had taken away our precious Helen by him, but enjoyed the story of interesting transition of its history. It was used as prison, execution ground, armory, and strage of loyal treasure. We got in the royal treasure exhibition (it was literally brilliant!!), and found some of them were off the case due to "in use". yeah, we knew it, they must be used for the parade we saw in the morning. (^^ One thing I regret that I should have reviewed my history textbook on highschool so that I could get the deeper value of those sights.
We walked down alongside the Thames to get to downtown, then had a nice dinner at british pub!
