London - Tower of London

We had a pretty easy going day today. It started off a little cold but fined up by the end of the day.

We headed to Oxford Street and did some shopping as Amelia needed a light jumper. Was a little tricky because all of the stores have put out their summer stock!

After finding a jersey at GAP (the third shop we looked) we stopped for a pint at "The Argyle Arms" before meeting Simon at the Baker St tube station.

From Baker St we headed to Tower Hill and had lunch at "The Minories" they had a two meals for £7.95 deal. Nice.

Simon had to head off to a stag do at the Spearmint Rhino so Amelia and I went to the Tower of London. It is really huge and we spent several hours wondering around the castle and the all the buildings contained in its walls. We saw the Crown Jewels (sparkly), Traitors Gate, the White Tower, the prisons and the humongous ravens. Lots of weaponry and armour too :)

After the tower we tubed back to our hotel so we could fill out this blog with what we have been up to over the last few days... so keep on reading!
