London, Tower of London, June 18

At the Tower of London with London Bridge

S: The Tower of London is a giant fortress and castle. We walked around the top wall and looked all around London. There were animals made out of wire. From far away they looked real, especially the elephant.

E: The Tower of London was really cool. A bunch of prisoners were kept there, and we got to see the English Crown Jewels. There were crowns, scepters, rings, orbs. They were very pretty. Some of the prisoners kept there were famous. We saw towers where some prisoners were kept.

A: The Tower of London is a giant fortress. I liked seeing the arms and armory. I liked learning about the weapons and how they were used. I also liked learning about the English coins. We saw a play set in 1666 in the Tower. It was about who was supporting the king and who was against him. The costumes and actors were great, and we got to participate in the play by choosing sides for or against the king.
