Tower of London

posted by irishiiiiiis on 25 May 2009 at 00:39

The Tower of London is a must do tourist site when in London. First buy your tickets on line and pick them up at the kiosk. You will save a ton of time and some money. Second get there early and visit preferably during the week. If you go later in the day on a weekend and did not pre-purchase your ticket then off with your head! When we were there the Crown Jewels were not, I have no idea where they were, but they were not there which sucked. So you might want to find out if they will be there during your visit and time your trip to the Tower accordingly. The Beefeaters (the guards not the gin) were for the most part jerks to the tourists. I guess it sucks to wear that outfit all day and deal with tourists, but the jerkiness was not called for. Kudos to the guy who took one of their hats during our visit. It was quite amusing as we watched them have a hissy fit with each other over it (no stiff upper lip here, they were having cows) Highlight of the trip to London.
