Here is a slide show of a visit to the Tower and Westminster Abbey.

I added captions to all of the pictures.

Let me know what you think!

    Great pix. I dont think we will see H8 get fat on the Tudors – there are some historical accuracies that they draw the line at!

    I hope we don't see H8 get fat — that would be a travesty and less eye candy for me!

    I love your comment about Merlin looking like the lion when he is happy. Give him an extra treat and tell him it is from me!
