These are the tools used to "Off with his head!"
This is the castle called The Tower of London
The crown jewels were kept in this building
Today was the Tower of London. It is a major castle in the middle of town - where england stores all the crown jewels. It was first built around 200 AD - and has been used ever since with additions. It used to be an arsenal for all the weapons and gun powder. It was a royal residence and the queen still has a home there. It was a prison - they used to behead people there. Henry VIII had Ann Boleyn lost her head here. 12 people in the 1900s were shot here. Now it is full of tourists.
We went early in the morning - so it was not too crowded - but by noon there were lines all over.
After the Tower of London - we crossed the Tower Bridge and walked along the river to the Shakespeare Globe Theatre. Then we crossed the Millenium pedestrian bridge and came home.
