 London is a terrific city, there´s hardly any other way to put it! I loved it when I visited it last year, and again this year. It was cool knowing my way around a little bit and I was the tour guide for my family. Check out the things we loved most!

The Tower of London
As I said, spooky, but delightful. The Crown Jewels were impressive enough, but Traitor's Gate stood out for me as my writer's imagination ran wild while looking at it. The rest of it was quite impressive as well. A very odd thing on display was a barrel with a video inside it. When you looked down you saw the Duke of Clarence being drowned. Legend and Shakespeare wrote that he was drowned in a barrel of wine- executed for treason. It was weird being in a place where so many people were imprisoned, tortured, murdured. The site where Lady Jane Grey (the Nine Days Queen) and Anne Boleyn were beheaded (among others) felt quite eerie. Still, I'd say the Tower is one tourist place not to be missed.

The best one, I´m convinced. We took in all the major sites more than
once and got off at The Tower of London...spooky but delightful.
