Day Seven-London Again
On Friday we went back into to London to see the Tower of London. This place is absolutely amazing!! It is nearly 1000 yrs. old! We of course took a tour with the Yeoman Warder-who was hilarious and had some awesome stories to tell. We drove over the Tower Bridge which is stunning. We saw Tower Green where Anne Bolyn was beheaded, traitors gate and of course the Crown Jewels. We couldn't take pictures in there, but they were impressive. Some parts of the Tower date back to Roman times. It is so amazing to see so much history in one place. The White Tower was very cool and they had an awesome display featuring armor and other things from Henry VIII's time. After the Tower we took the Tube to Kings Cross Station and found Platform 9 3/4-we tried to get to Hogwarts, but didn't have enough magic-I guess we are true Muggles. Tanner wanted to take a "2 headed" bus, so we hopped on a double decker. Tanner and Troy scored awesome seats in the front on the top and we enjoyed riding through London. We drove down Oxford Street and got off near Harrods. Harrods is absolutely HUGE and the window displays were quite impressive. They were holding a Winter Festival in Hyde Park that was lots of fun. It had lots of rides and fun booths. Troy and the kids rode a ride and we stocked up on Gummis. It was an awesome last day. On Saturday we headed to the airport and once again ended up lost and barely making our flight, but we had so much fun. It was truly an amazing vacation. England did not disappoint in any way and I can't wait to go back again some day as there is so much more to see-Troy says I have to see Italy first though :)
