Tower of London

By having the displays of the Crown Jewels in the middle, it allowed the crowds to get sorted out and everyone knew what you were waiting for. We were there at about 1030am and had to wait 20 minutes. If it's raining you will be waiting in the elements during this time, the queue is in the middle of the yard. The queue moved quickly and it very organized. There were lots of school tours on the day we were in which meant lots of energy in the room. The crown jewels were a high point for us. Even the empty crowns are impressive but you have to seem them in person to really understand. We ride the conveyor belt by amd looked and then, went back in the viewing deck and read about the items, with the new inclusion of King Charles III and then went through again and it was even better. The emeralds, sapphires, and rubies pop, but the diamonds are the stars.#awesomepic #couplestrip #deliciousfood
